Re: contact display in same contact window   

Hello Ken,

Thanks for the reply. 
I did exactly what you said.

I displayed a contact (e.g. Henry) in a contact window

now I got the launched (Henry) contact window through Inspector. But, don't know how to set the next record(Edwin) to the the same contact window which was launched earlier( i.e while displaying Henry)

you want me to set each field(i.e Full name,Company name,Address) of the contact(Edwin) in the contact window.
Can't I use the contact id(of Edwin) to set the entire fields in the contact window.

Thanks,
Rajeen R

Re: contact display in same contact window   

If the contact is the active window then it's the ActiveInspector. Assuming 
that you do exactly what I said, it's really simple.

Say Edwin's contact is oContact2:

ActiveInspector().CurrentItem = oContact2;

That's it, that's all you have to do.
