It looks like this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find exactly what we're looking for . . .

How would you get the equivilant to the 'B= type lookup (from ARev) in OI? In other words, call IXLOOKUP - return the key(s) and populate the window? Would the best way be to set QBFLIST?

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff-

We do exactly that. Get data back from a popup/IXLookup/Select, and then populate the QBF list.

Example:

*—————

Rlist('SELECT file WITH field BY another field ',5,,,) list=' done=' loop readnext id else done=1 until done if len(list) then list:=@fm:id else list=id repeat if len(List) then @@Window-]qbflist=list .goto_record_btn-]enabled=1 end else x=msg(,'No records to put in list')

end

*————–

The 'Goto' Button control calls a popup so that the user can go to a record in the list. Using the existing QBF controls the user needs to know the position of the record in the list, and who knows that?

Hope it helps-

Return value in QBFLIST property of @Window.

Incidentally this trick is the easiest way of duplicating the catalyst=functionality. So for example, you could quick event a popup and return value in @Widnow, QBFLIST. No code required!
