Search name in NAB through web - for pcorreya

I would be very interested to know how you did this, if you're not using a @DbColumn to display names in a combobox.
Since where I work the address book contains over 100000 people, you can image that the 64K limit is a barrier I'd like to cross.
You can send a sample database to jean-marie.geeraerts@philips.com

Thanks in advance!!

you don't want to use a picklist ?
aha on the web... Can you add 2 design elements to the NAB ?
or can you use the (wAddress) form from the mail template ?

I use a list box to populate the results, I am not sure on the limit for a list box ? Anyway, I shall send you the code on Monday when I get to work.

Hello, agent Mulder,
What are you thinking about ? What extra elements and what would I use them for ?
I've got a solution with a HTML-file stored on the server, but I don't like that, since I want the "picklist" to be dynamically created from the address book and not from a daily runnng agent.
i use a solution where you add a view and a form to the nab that you can use to select people, it has a quicksearch and a remove function and it is realtime from the nab....if you are interested i can send you a db....
Sure, looks like Patrick's forgotten about me ;-)
Anyway if he sends me his solution I can see which solution best suits my needs.

I have sent you the db this morning 10 hours ago. Let me know if you haven't received it yet.

Have you forgotten me.

Nope, just was away sailing for the weekend.
I haven't looked at the db yet, but I trust you it will work.
I'll also post a question for Agent Mulder, since his solution seems to be equally useful.

Thanks to you both !!

Thanks for the points, I hope you find it helpful. Anyway I would like your feedback on it.

Thanks

Hi martijnmulder

I am interested in seeing your solution, if you don't mind if you can email me the db to pcorreya@bigpond.com. I can send you my address dialog box if you want.

Thanks
Patrick
I'm working on a Euro-conversion at the moment and as december approaches this is very urgent, but as soon as I have the time to check it out I'll send you my feedback.

Regards and thanks again for your trouble.
