Answer: I don't know. There aren't any answers to this question online—though it's been asked numerous times—as far as I can find. GenFireServerEvent is a bit of a black boxto me, from which I must extrapolate theories by trial and error. ;) But, this is SharePoint (a.k.a. "many ways to skin a cat"), and I DO know how you can get a similar result without the anchor... In a CEWP, add jQuery to the page and have the last call inside $().document.ready() be: $("input[title='Your top-left-most column']").focus(); Putting the focus there will scroll the page up for you. That doesn't help to bring that record back into view on Cancel, though. But, hopefully it will help the bulk of the frustration on this account. Blessings, Jim Bob Dear Rogue,

In a long list of items if I hit Edit the page refreshes and I have to scroll down to find what line I want to edit. This can be annoying even if it's just a short scroll down. Aloha Jim Bob,

Using the DVWP, is it possible to create links between two web parts that are on different sites?
