Isn't that similar to what you said? Nav on grid, subform to edit


Your comment
I recently saw a commercial MRP that used a grid for data entry. The user hated scrolling sideways trying to keep all the field contents in their head. I'll use grids for display, delete, but will recommend using a subform for data entry. If only VMP could do that natively.

>>that can be launched from a rightclick or other keystroke from the grid. This way, you can use the grid for navigation, when you find the record pop open the form, edit/validate/save and return right back into the grid where you left off.
