Ok....two days have passed and I still can't figure it out. I need a sample to study. What I am trying to do is take the step by step tutorial ( http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dg79jzmg_3x78zkp) and create a form to add new clients. I've gotten this far with success.
Now what I want to do on the form is take the dTextBox for adding the state and turn it into a dDropdownList for the states. I want to hard code this NOT pull it in from the database. I've tried numerous things to no avail. I've tried the many pointer Larry and Ed gave me and can only manage a drop down properly populated with the hard coded values. But when I click the save button everything is written to the database except for a value for the stateprov field of the clients table. I guess I'm not under standing which of these tips go into which file. What goes into my ClientForm-code.py and what goes into my ClientBizobj.py file? Prior to my previous statements, spoon feeding take me back to a warm fuzzy place.
