Embed into CCK forms

Hi. I am trying to add a view with bulk operations to a cck form. The user should be able to select from the exposed filter, the view should refresh and they can select what they want, and then continue filling in the form. I can also use the actions module to write custom code when the bulk operations button is pressed. Another complication is that the form is multistep-using cck witch. The two main stumbling blocks are: when the user clicks the submit for the filter the whole form submits, and i can't just include the view along with the other cck fields-only in it's own custom block. Apologies for any gaps in my understanding. I hope I'm even asking in the right place. Many thanks for your time.

Just an update for anyone who was also wondering: I have not figured out how to do this. As a workaround I just decided to display the view on its own page and when the bulk update button is pressed, the selected nodes are processed and the user is sent to another page (using drupal_goto).
