Selection Lists

Selection lists display records in a list format and are typically used to select a record from the list.   Selection lists are normally used to load  information into a specific field in a form.  A good example of a selection list is the Company Selection list.  This program is called from the Company Manager and it is used to select and load the company to be viewed or updated in that program.   Selection lists differ from other lookup programs as other lookups may offer additional functionality  (ie you normally cannot customize the fields to be displayed in a selection list, and the sort options may be more limited than those that would be offerred in a browse based program that offers multiple display and search sequences).
