Ok, but true frames load very slow - not on an intra, but on internet. The select is not the problem, I use cursors to output every line. At first I did an implementation like yours but users said it's to uncomfortable (they like static VB-Tools). Then I asked JS to reload a frameset using a LIMIT-query from 50 +/- of selectedIndex and then just reload if a new index is out of this range, but for me there is no ability to hide/show these fields from JS. So i think i would have to use an Applett?
