Setting the list selection only affects the list, not the popup trigger. You need to set the label of the popup trigger for it to change. An alternate method is to send a popSelectEvent (I think that's the right one) to the popup trigger, and let Palm OS handle updating everything. That method is risky, though, if you're actually going to do something in your code when the selection is changed. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Smith // avalon73 at caerleon dot us // http://www.caerleon.us/ Software Developer // Gamer // Webmaster // System Administrator A Black Hole: What happens when God divides by zero. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
