This is brilliant !!
Thanks a LOT Anthony
What I ended up doing is :

Above would work for a "fixed" last name. But I need it to work with
"lambda" - wher
Assuming you have a particular parent last name, it would be:
IS_IN_DB(db(db.parent.lname == last_name), 'parent.id', db.parent._format,

Can/should I use IS_IN_SET ? (I got different error mentioned
