Useful as it might be it is not straightforward to implement. Basically because the lists only shows a subset of the items, so that when you get to the last item on the first page of the list we don't know which item is the next one. Hmmm.... maybe it would work to just store the total count of items and then use the list index instead of item id. The drawback is that the query generating the list would need to be repeated on each new request, but that is usually quick enough. Here is another tip. Use one of CTRL/ALT/SHIFT when you click on the item in the list view to bring up the "Edit" dialog in a new window. BASE will even remember which tab you were looking at so it is very quick and it also allows you to change any mistakes. /Nicklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
