This could be of use to you. This is the solution that occurred to me when considering Graham's question(s). Good to know that it's worked well for you. Do you show anything at all about the hidden records along with the expand control (e.g., those pesky dates Graham mentioned, which will be key in lots of applications)? Or does the one "head" record stand as the proxy for all in the default display? > Since no-one else seems interested in this topic, you could email me off list Others may well be listening, if not responding. Just a thought . . .
