Mike,
The typical mistake here is that the value in the "into-variariable" contains
the index of the selected item, not the "real" value of this. So you need to
use the "into"variable" to get the value from you array of municipalites.
Dim arrMuniNames(), szMuni As String,
nMuniItem As Integer
Dialog
'...some dialog statement
'...some controls
Control PopupMenu
Title From Variable arrMuniNames
Into nMuniItem
'...some more controls
szMuni = arrMuniNames(nMuniItem)
Select * From MUNITABLE
Where MUNINAME = szMuni
If SelectionInfo(SEL_INFO_NROWS) > 0 Then
Browse * From Selection
End if

Subject: MI-L Pop-Up Menu values
Hello Everyone,
I have a problem where I am trying to retrieve a value from a highlighted
option within a pop-up menu control. Basically, I have a custom dialog with a
pop-up menu containing different municipalities. The values in the pop-up menu
are read from a table column. Once the user selects a municipality, I want to
take the selected value and put that into a variable to be used in a select
statement. I have tried using the 'into <var name>' command but get no luck.
Basically, when the select statement executes, I get no values in the newly
created browser table. However, if I hard-code in a municipality name, the
select statements works, but when trying to use a variable instead of the
actual name, I get no results in the browser table. Any suggestions??
