Peter, I agree with the other here that the behaviour is as I'd expect and works the way I want it to. Can you better explain what it is you are after? Is it you have a button named "Make a Choice" and it's dynamically filled with 0 to umpteen choices, but regardless of whats in there, OR what a

Bob, I think you would need to remove the astrisks otherwise if you have single letter variables (many use them as counters in repeat loops) or words that may appear in other words - lStart, lStartSearch - you could easy miss some. On Thu, Jul 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM, Bob Sneidar wrote: > Seems you

Re: menu buttons and showname

I am misunderstanding. In an option menu, if I have, say, the second line of the text of the button as empty, I get empty in the selected choice. This has nothing to do with the name of the button itself, which does not show itself, nor the state of the show name. This is the behavior of an

I've struggled with using the showName property of a menu button pretty much ever since I started using LC and beginning to wonder if I'm missing something. The showName property needs to be true for the the user's selected choice from, for example, an option menu to be displayed. First problem -

There is this, but it requires user interaction, specifically with a powershelgl authentication dialog. It also has some other pre-requisites that would become insurmountable obstacles if you did not have administrative access to the Exchange server or the workstation executing the powershell.
