new day new question................

I wrote/maintain a system where I have a directory that contains 55 static 
fields and 95 generic fields that  a company can define.  I have been asked 
to write something which will allow a company to search on a combination of 
all 150 fields.

They want to be able to search each field with =, >, <, <>, <=, 
and >=.  Some (all) of the 95 fields can be selected as pull downs.  If so 
I have another table that keeps track of these.

A couple of weeks ago I sent an email to the list regarding melting pull 
downs.  This is the problem I have when I have all of these fields on one 
page.  The browsers seem to collapse/breakdown, they can not handle all of 
the different options.

Has anyone done something similar?  Any suggestions on how I can break this 
up?   The only solution I can come up with is to limit the number of fields 
they can search on to something like 20 records.  This would resolve the 
problem but I am not sure if it would offer the best solution.

Suggestions, comments, questions?

thanks,
kaigler
