Combo Detailed and List Record View?
Does anyone know how to do a combination detailed/list view mod? I'm trying to have a detailed record view with 5 (or some number) of list view records underneath. Let's say there are 20 records (no searching will be done). Record 1 shows up with all associated info (detailed view) along with "list view" info for records 1 to 5 underneath. Clicking next at the top will take you to record number 2, leaving the list view unchanged. Continuing to navigate forward record-by-record, at record 5, clicking next will take you to record 6 with the "list view" info then updating for records 6 to 10.

There will also be forward and back navigation options for the "list view" area of the screen - allowing a user to "tab" forward/back 5 records at a time w/the "detailed view" area always updating to the first of the 5 currently displayed records.

I know I can do this quite easily with frames, but I'd rather program it into dbman itself. Any thoughts? Perhaps my request has already been covered, but I can't find anything searching the posts.
