Pull Down List
Feb 1st, 2021 at 7:52pm
Print Post Print Post  
I would like to create a list of two elements in my current file (RECEIVING) from another file (APPROVED VENDORS) in my data base that would act like a pull down list.  I want to be able to have the list appear and then select one (click one) of the items on the list and add it to two elements in my current file.

How would i do that?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm no expert, but you'll have to write 3 statements in the program manager, with a button or field that triggers on Element Entry.
the list, the position of the popup, variable/field to store the data in.

for example:
vList1 = ("Item1","Item2","Item3")
PopupSelectPosition(4,@XPos(ThisElement),@YPos(ThisElement))
Chosenfield = @PopupChoiceList(vList1,"Select Item")

If you're getting the list from another database, you'd need to use a xlookup.
