Wow, Bill.
I had no idea you could "play" something into a Choose command. I would
love to be able to "play" back even the first letter of the last value
selected to get the user back to roughly the same place on a long
SQL/CHOOSE list. That way, they could pull up the list, pop into a form,
then come back to where they were without doing cyclical iterations of
several "page downs". Any details?
