Hi…

I am wanting make a helper for a search field. The laytou will follow. A  
text\_field(person\_id for example), a button, that call a screen of  
search, wich a list. When click a one row of list, the screen will  
close, and code of person(for example) show in text\_field(Thar one of  
person\_id).

Already exists one plugin that it makes this?

I found I find odd not to find something on this, therefore in  
applications, that is a trivial action.
