Hi,

thanks! ;-)

mmm, that sounds interesting. it's certainly possible to implement
it. i think the best way to do it would be to create a "virtual"
database with the selected entries, which you can view and edit like
any normal database. the only difference would be that this database
is not saved to a file, but rather it's just a subset of another
database. any changes you make will then automatically be propagated
to the "parent" database.

looks like something OO would be perfect for... ;-)

suggestions on better/different ways to implement it are welcome.
