Hi the Filter/Filtered/OnFilterRecord set works more or less the way you describe. It seems that this is not the functionality you really need. From what you describe I understand (possibly I'm wrong) that you want an operation where 1. a kind of filtering is applied to the rows of a dataset testing the rows one by one 2. when a row passes the test, it is moved to SECOND dataset and displayed to a second grid. If the above is correct, then you have to code it by yourself. The filtering capabilities of the TDataset do not cover that kind of functionality. -- Regards Theo ------------------------ Theo Bebekis Thessaloniki, Greece ------------------------ Greek_Delphi_Prog : a Delphi Programming mailing list in Greek at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Greek_Delphi_Prog CSharpDotNetGreek : A C# and .Net mailing list in Greek language at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CSharpDotNetGreek atla_custom : a Unisoft Atlantis Customization mailing list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/atla_custom ------------------------ ------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------- Home page: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/delphi-en/ To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Groups Links <*> To visit your group on the web, go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/delphi-en/ <*> Your email settings: Individual Email | Traditional <*> To change settings online go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/delphi-en/join (Yahoo!
