I’d like to display data in a grid and allow the user to select a record that I would then open for editing. I’m new to LibreOffice and have not yet found much about grids in the help files.
To what purpose? The data in the grid is already editable.
And what is with all the Wiki postings? Posting as a wiki takes away functionality & makes it appear you are hiding.
Updated answer: I put together this demo database for you. Open it, and then open the Form. Then select a country at the top and the record pointer is moved to this record below in the Table Control (the green arrow on the left). If you edit a record, the lookup is updated when you next enter it. You can easily add multiple pull downs at the top, and use the same code for it’s events, for example you might add another pull down sorted by something else.

Thank you so much.
You’re welcome. It took me much head scratching to figure out how to get LO to do this.
