OK, now even me got it. Good luck!

I have something similar like that, but without the need for a real state
like discussed before. It's rather simple, and not all of it is english.
And, i can't share the source.

There is a user test with password test. When you enter it, you reach
another screen and are forwarded to another one.

The lower one is a "subfile" consisting of the existing newsletters (from a
file) and checkboxes whether the user is subscribed or not (another file,
newsletter-id:user-id).

All n fields can be set or unset with one single "save" click. Testing was
easier with "just subscribed" and "just unsubscribed" in the columns. I
left it in as i thought it would be a "nice litte one".. ;-)

(The whole thing is based on a rather old macro; i would do some things
completely different now - but who not :-).
