Thank you for your answer and for the link.
Didn't change my model with union yet, but I think this will be fine.
I'm also thinking of another way to do this with a multipage form without 
exchange between client and server until the last page of the form.
Maybe I could use something like in the tabbed pane example...
As I don't exactly want to make the multipage looks like a tabbed pane 
other ideas would be welcome.

Regards

Karim
