I would assume that each row represents a record.
Therefore, I would setup one main screen where users could search the
records (by some identifying mark) or could select a record from a drop down
lists of record. This selection would then send the user to a typical edit
page, which would represent each column as some sort of field (text,
checkbox, etc.) that the user could edit and then press a submit button to
update the information. That is generally how we do update forms.

Subject: displaying data from a table
> Dear All
>
> When displaying rows of data from a database table I have been
> using CFGRID. The user then selects a row in the table and
> clicks on a button to perform some action. (Delete or Change
> for example).
>
> Is this the way most people do this sort of thing? Is there
> other ways of displaying data in this way (not using CFGRID)
> and then letting the user scroll through it selecting one or
> more rows before performing some action on those rows?
>
> I was thinking of displaying the data in a <table> with a check
> box in each row to allow them to select that row. Then I am not
> sure how to process the form once they submit.
>
> Any thoughts appreciated.
