Michel, not being an experienced Java programmer I am having difficulty following your explanation. So I was wondering if you could generate an example of this that could be used as a guidline. Just a basic example so I/we could see what is needed in the base form, what is needed in the search form, what is needed in the listing form. It does not have to have any query guts as I can handle that (and it would be different for everyones app). I just need to see how the basic html/Java skeleton is setup. If you don't have time then that is no problem as I will continue on. But I know that this would be very beneficial to me and I think to others to see how this technique is accomplished via an example that we can download and run/edit locally.

Thanks for your response.
