>Excellent idea. Somehow I got on the track of thinking of a macro, and didn't even think about using a form.

My head was full of browse forms... my recent discussions with Peter Robinson about how to best control a browse window programmatically. He also reminded me of the rarely used clause: browse ... name, where you actually get an object reference to the grid which does the job of the old browse. I could take a year to explore all the possibilities there :).
