I have a database of author names that is sorted alphabetically by last name. In a related table, i would like to do a lookup on the value of an author field for a similar name in the Authors database and have a portal that shows the nearest match and the surrounding 10 records. is this possible? I can get the nearest match to show up, but do not know how to show the surrounding 10 records (previous 5, next 5)

Thanks for any help

If you can upgrade to FM 8, this can be easily done using GetNthRecord.
