>Ok - you've talked me out of combo boxes for a lookup of 10k records or more, so here is what I have:

> - When search button is pressed, another screen pops up and you select an option from the option group to set data index (3 choices)
> - Index is set and another screen pops up with grid that I want to be able to find a record and dump the selected record along with all of its contents back to the original inquiry screen
>How do I accomplish this? From search button on inquiry screen, to another screen with index selection type to different grids based on the selection - or can I have one grid screen and reformat based on the selection type.
>I'd like to know the best way to get the data from the type of lookup selected by the user to get the data into the inquiry screen. I have the grid set up, but it almost acts as if it is read only. Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks.

Hi Tina,

You may have just one lookup grid which does incremental search in your form. If you have 3 indexes to search on, you may have a grid with 3 columns. Click on the column header switches the index. To perform the incremental search you may use INGRID textbox class which you can find in Files section/Classes-VCX.
As soon as you find the record in lookup grid you can refresh the data in your other form controls.
