Nick has a sample of Movers two, which I haven't studied too close yet. I just noticed, that in this sample it doesn't allow to move multiple records, though he suggested a workaround.

Why not? With little adjustments it would save and restore, no problem. I even already created a quite compilcated class based on this multiselect grid class with ability to save and restore configuration. For this particular application, I'm working right now, this class is overkill.

I just don't know, what would be easier for the user: multiselect grid or Mover class.

Oops, I just remembered, that Nick's sample is based on listboxes, not grid.

There are 368 towns for MA, so I don't think, simple mover would work.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
