:-))) yes, we also have discuss such idea -- easy navigation between records
in many tables and, I have think yet, about back path for return.

Such navigation should happens I think with

        Option -- Double click for example

RIGHT Ed. You have catch idea. :-)

Although I have think about opening of next table in the top browser so in
related browser you can see next childs

Plus, the path of my jumps should be visible, like this do PathFinder or
some web sites (including paradigma-soft).
