Business Application programming using Relational Data Structures in all environments GUI, Web and CHUI, almost always involve the representation of Groups and its Members. These Group/Member relationships could be a Group of Customers by Sales Region, the Users in a particular Security Group, the States that belong to a Country, etc. There are various approaches to presenting this association between Groups and its Members, depending on the nature of the application, the programming and UI environment, and other user requirements. One of the most common presentation methods, used under GUI, Web and CHUI environments is known as the Left-to-Right method. Under this presentation methodology, the user is presented with a list of all potential Members for a Group on the Left and the current selected Members in the Group on the Right. This article provides an easy to use Temp-Table approach to the Left-to-Right method, whereby the developer can simply replace the custom fields in the Temp-Table (in the example code) to satisfy the needs of his/her application.
