@popupmenu question

Hello,
Not even sure how to say this...so I'll show it.

Machine_Type = @Popupmenu (@xlookupall(@fn, CompanyName, "Equipment!Co_Name", "Equipment_Type"), "Equipment Type")

When the list pops up, any equipment with a "/" in it makes a sub list with every thing after the "/".

I've tried to work around this by not using the "/" character but the time has come to correct this. 

Any suggestions or ideas?

Thank you,
flip

Hey Flip,

The / is the character used to create sub-menus so if you don't want a sub-menu all you need to do is use the @Replace() function to replace a single / with a double / telling @PopupMenu() that you just want a slash in the data.

Ex:

Code
Select All
Machine_Type = @Popupmenu(@Replace(@xlookupall(@fn, CompanyName, "Equipment!Co_Name", "Equipment_Type"), "/", "//"), "Equipment Type")

Hi Ray, good to hear from ya!

Thank you, was reading up and seen where my code broke. And you made it look painfully simpler than mine.

As always thankful for you support!
