A scrollable list could be done with a portal; the trick is to get a
list of only the found set. You'd have to define a relationship
(self-relationship, names<>names) for the portal that would use a
calculated key. The calculation would be of the form FoundField &
Record Number, where FoundField would somehow, through a scripted
Replace maybe, get set to a value when you find the set you want.
