Thanks for the info Robert - I was aiming at using some of the forms etc. functionality from the admin interface in my own applications (trying to not re-invent the wheel).
I will have a look around the admin_list.py code and see whether I can pick things up from there. Certainly being able to use all the Django forms goodies in my own app would be *rather* nice, so please developers, could you consider this a +1 for this functionality 'out of the box'?. cheers Tone
