>I have been writing code to locate, seek, etc for my 0wn views and cursors, but am not sure if I use the same technique for bizobj data environments in code. For example, my account bizobj that I use with a find form, has a single view parameter by unique id (primary key).

If I just "locate for account_number = ", is the bizobj happy, or do I have to use bizobj.requery to move to a specific record, or are there methods I have to run to keep the bizobj updated with what I've done in code?

Gary,

A parameterized view is probably the best way to extract the information you need. Take a look at the clientfindform in the MM examples to see a good example of what you are trying to accomplish. More specifically, take a look at the click event of the "find now" command button. This should suffice nicely for you.
