I've done sorting buttons, those are just order by clauses populating the cursar, in the data provider. If you combine one of those on a text field, then have a two parameter query in your cursor creator. Trap each keypress, then requery. Not sure what that much overhead would do with large record sizes. You'll have to use wildcards, you'll have to look that up, haven't done it yet in sqlLite.
