I checked some of the postings regarding this and would really like to see an example if anybody actually has one!
My situation slightly different though. I am on a Browse, and then I want to press a Button that goes to a Browse showing what is available and selected.
A bit difficult to describe, let my try again. I have an insurance policy, and I can select certain Sections. Once selected from the Sections file, I copy these to the Policy Sections file. So I never go to a Form to Select the Sections.
(Please see attachment. I basically want that Window Select Browse 2nd pic to be called from the left side of the 1st pic.)
So obviously I have to do a Select Sections Browse in NetTalk, and call it from a Browse. I just don't know if it is possible, how to call it, etc. I do not even need to know what is already selected, just the Browse to Select from should be cool.
Any ideas anybody, Bruce?
Thanks
Charl

Rather than trying to highlight multiple records, add a check box field (you need to store this in your DB) and then use this info to filter your other browse.

I confess that despite the description, I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do.
I think what you want is a form, with a single multi-select field on it. (it looks like a drop list.).
Then also on the form is a browse, with a child browse.
As the user multi-selects things on the drop-down, the parent browse, and child browse are populated.

Thanks Bruce and Kevin,
I followed Bruce advice here, a Form with the Drop down and a Add Section Button. When Button is pressed I just whack the handcode in there under the Client Code Settings. Works like a charm.
I sometimes still struggle how to get my head around _how_ to do things on the web as oposed to Desktop, but this is a pretty nifty solution. It also gets easier by the day.
Cheers
Charl
