Hi all

I have a form which represents a contract to buy a home. In this form is a grid representing n buyers. There is another grid which represents n phone numbers per buyer. Its all based on views.

During an add of buyer(s), I add a set of phone #'s per each buyer. If I navigate from buyer to buyer while the buffer is dirty, it will crash (of course). Posting the phone #'s prior to navigating to another buyer seems illconceived. So, I think I should use SET FILTER on the phone view. The phone view should be designed to show all phone #'s of all buyers in the current contract.

That way I can add phone #'s to each buyer willy-nilly and save the whole thing when I save the contract.

I dismiss the idea of using set key because I'd have the extra overhead of adding the tag during form launch, plus updating the tags as the user enters data. I expect there should be no more than 20 phone #'s per contract.

Any objections?

Thanks
