Application has several fields that require Yes/No, Yes/No/Unknown type answers. Customer wants data entry person to see the options upon entering LE rather than, 1st click for Yes, next click for No, etc. I settled on using @PopupMenu without a menu header because it uses a smaller profile than @PopupChoiceList and in general looks better for this application, and a combo box is not wanted because of the arrow. A combo box without the arrow, just clicking in the LE for the list, would be perfect. Of course customer wants to see the options in order of Yes, No, Unknown. @PopupMenu automatically sorts the list. To “defeat” the auto sort, a slash is placed at the end of the last selection. This works, however, it also produces the “sub-selections" arrow. I know that the customer will comment on this, is there any crafty way of getting rid of the arrow? Or, are there any other options for showing a list like this with a small profile? 

*EDIT* Additionally, I also see that after the selection is made using @PopupMenu the cursor automatically jumps to the first LE on the tab, unlike @PopupChoiceList that goes to the next LE. Throwfocus does not solve this issue. Any ideas for this?   

Thanks

Hi Bharat,

"//" negates the "no sort" option and produces selections like this:

No/
Yes

This won't work for them.

Also, customer just doesn't want a check box.

Thanks for the ideas,

I agree with you Carl on the combo box option. However, they are sticklers for having it exactly like they want it, if you know what I mean (kind of demanding). Also there are about 70 LE's , that I am aware of thus far, that they want working like this and changing them over to combo boxes could be a long process.

Also, if they overlook the arrow issue, I'm not sure that they will like the fact that after selection, the cursor goes back to the first LE on the tab (kinda perplexed on this, like, why is it doing that, is there something else making it behave like this, or is it @PopupMenus default). Using the code below, using Throwfocus on the LE and in the subroutine, separately & trying one at a time, does not allow you to reenter an LE that you place a selection in because of @Isblank. I tried CNext in the subroutine for kicks without success.

Thanks for your ideas,

Brandon

Here's the code...

Subroutine YesNoOnly()
If @IsBlank(ThisElement)
{
	PopupSelectPosition(4, @XPos(ThisElement), @YPos(ThisElement))
	ThisElement = @PopupMenu("Yes;No/","")
}
End Subroutine
