Do you want to show more than 1 at a time? I'm guessing 'yes' since you're wanting to use a grid. Personally, I'd create a container that objects 3 records and then just use buttons to set the data in the containers accordingly. (Like a Next, Previous kind of button sequence.) _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
