Is possible to select (by a checkbox) the 3 records?

how can visualize them into the layout?

thx

Sure: make the field (a global field, of course) auto-enter a calculated value (replacing existing value) =

LeftValues ( Self ; 3 )

I would attach a triggered script to the checkbox field to find the three records.

ok for finding, I'm ready, but how can show the 3 records into the same layout?
