Thanks Shawn. I will modify the example in the docs to make it more
complete. I will e-mail you the changes since I don't have cvs access. I
will also look into modifying testsuite or bugtrakker demos to include a
search. As for the entry modification, I forgot to mention that the problem
'mysteriously' disappeared when I installed the new release of dbforms.
However I will look at pluggable events system in case I want to do a more
complex trigger.
