Re: Multiple Blocks On A Form

Thanks Matt, I guess you answered part two of the problem; but first I can't seem to ADD the non-database block to the form canvas. Don't I need to add the block, then put the search controls in the "new/top" block. How do I add the block and see it visually on the form; something like insert block, then move it where I want. I think once I have it this code will "requery" the bottom block:

set_block_property('block_name' , default_where, my where clause); go_block('block_name');
execute_query;

Thanks,
Tom
