Hi Dmitry,
You can use a popup window to display the vendor information then have it populate the textbox on the main page. For an example of the code, see message #
696352.
>What is the "accepted" way of doing a lookup in WebForms?

>For example, in a Web Form for creating invoice, you have to enter/select the vendor. In Windows application this is done by a lookup button next to the Vendor textbox and a pop up of vendor table grid in a separate window.

>In a web form this would require a new webform with vendor table DataGrid to be displayed, where user can select a vendor and return to the Invoice web form.
>But it takes time to load a new web form on every vendor selection.

>TIA.
