I find for pull down text boxes Accuterm works!, I used a LISTB (tab separated line output in an execute statement capturing the return of list data, looped through the data and separated the lines and fields then passed it to accuterm list box. Little to no code! Worked great!

Accuterm is incredibly affordable. $1,000 for 50 licenses. That's great to begin with. Second, for us programmers: WED is a great editor marrying the MS feel of Notepad with a MV-oriented editor. Indenting, multi-windows, cut & paste, label finding, color coding, opening subordinate programs etc. Third, GED (the GUI designer) creates regular mv subroutines that can be incorporated in an existing green screen apps and menus. 2 of my clients mandate new development in GED and to back-develop existing programs when time is available. IIRC, there is no magic pill to convert a green screen app to a gui app. Key word is CONVERT instead of re-write. The ability to manage a multi-year transition with GED/green screens is very appealing to end user environments instead of VAR environments. My 2 cents.
