> They do? ​Remind me how that works. I don't think I ever knew that. They work great! Set up an hlist and populate it. Sort of a one-column listbox without all of the glitter. Give the area focus and start typing. You automatically move to the right item. Handy for navigating something like a list of tables. If you want the hlist to react to elements being clicked/typed to, you'll want code something like this:
*Case of * * : *(*Form event*=On Clicked) | (*Form event*=On Selection Change) *C_LONGINT*($table_number) *C_TEXT*($table_name) *GET LIST ITEM*(JoinBuilder_TableNames_hlist;*Selected list items*( JoinBuilder_TableNames_hlist);$table_number;$table_name) *C_LONGINT*($relations_count) $relations_count:=*JoinBuilder_LoadRelations *($table_number) *End case * In the code above, "JoinBuilder_TableNames_hlist" is the hlist, and each list item holds a table number (that's the item ref, it isn't displayed) and a table name (the visible label.) That just the code that I was working with so it came to hand.... It's pretty smooth and easy to use. Of course, you don't get all of the nice formatting options like alternate row colors...and I find I do miss that....but the usability is so much higher this way with code that's no harder than with an array in a listbox. ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
