Add, search, Delete, Update ; all in one page?

[siena]

Sorry, I inadvertently hit the enter key which submitted an empty post.

I have 4 pages, add.asp, modify.asp, delete.asp and search.asp.

Each of these pages work real well.
However, the user would like everything done on one screen.
In other words, if the user wishes to perform an insert, he can do that on the same screen.
He would also like to do an update.
For instance, to update a record, the user would like to select a record from a dropdown menu and details of that dropdown will appear in another box within the same screen.
The user would then perform the update on the same screen.
I was wondering if anyone has seen a example of how this could be done.
Hope my explaination is not confusing.

The faq I recently put in covers most of this functionality (add, edit, delete), although it doesn't do the dropdown thing to let people select a record to edit. It may be a help in getting started:

right, it's something like ASP Grid. ASP Grid is a sort of Active X control developed by Persits software inc. for more details visit

i used it couple of years ago. Developing a grid with all those features u asked for is a pain in ur arse.

How about using frame set, one frame for the drop down to select record for update/insert/delete/search, one frame to show the result/form page of the selected action. This way the user feel they are on the same page, and you may be able to reuse your existing pages.

The frameset sounds real good; I will try that.
Thanks all!
