>>In a grid which is bound on a view, I need to check a few records to be printed. The view is having a field just for the purpose of holding a checkbox for the selected records to be printed. So far so good, I can select a few record. Now, I need to print only those selected. If I do a SELECT, it won't grab those records because the SELECT does not work on buffering. I can't also save the grid as this is not an updatable field. Any idea?

Thanks
