I have been using the Browse Dailog on a few screens and its working out very well. Typically I use it with a text Box , say to do a look up on a cutomer file. The user would enter text into the text box, and I first do an exact lookup on the Customer table to see if the cutomer number exists. If it does, I don't call the Browse Dialog. If it does not, i assume the user has entered 'part' of the name and I call a browse dialog with a few colums ftom the customer file set up. All this is working perfectly.

Now I find  I need this funtionality on say 20 forms. What I had started to do was repeat the same text box and browse dialog on each form, but thought there must be a better way . Some guidance of setting up a Customer Lookup class (based on a text Box that calls the browse dialog) that I can then drop on each of my forms.I can manage searching the tables etc but not sure how to set up the BrowseDialog in code as opposed to from within a form.

Pseudo code of the sort of thing I'm lookin at would be:

Hi Ivan.

I will plough ahead then and see if I can develop a small Class. I initially wanted to ensure that this was feasible before devoting a lot of time and effort. I use these lookups all over the place , and in our VFP system, we have a few classes specificaly for this which are fairly generic and wanted to replicate something similar in SF if possible. I realise it may be a bit of work up front, but should pay off in the long run
