>>Well, you can build exactly the same functionality lake 'JKEY' on 2.6 Browse by putting one text field on top of a grid and then boosting various methods&events to do the job. If you put it together in a modal form with parameterized database/table/fields input and then dinamicaly assign columns
>>indexes etc, you can build quiet a bit of a searching facility.

Thank you Bernard
Well, I have seen 'INGRID' and realy does job, what bothers me is that
you have to build (or rebuild) grids using these classes what could be painfool
and time consuming. I have developed my own solution to that issue which could
be called 'ON-Grid', class based on container in which case all you have to do
is to flash that object on top of already built grids and enter grid name as
property, and you are getting whole search ENGINE
(incremental search,memos,locate,filter builder etc) ready to go.
