Bob,
Sorry for not saying it in the first post, it is at compile time. It is a list of a few different time frames (1h, 4h, 12h, 1day ect...) and the user will select the one they want, and then i will set an alarm to have the app run an update using the given time frame. The time frames are set, they cant make their own. The list is known at compile time. Does this make it easier to deal with the popup trigger?
Well, using PilRC you could just define a list in the rcp file like this:
Define a popup trigger, define a list, and associate the 2 together.
POPUPTRIGGER "" ID triggerID_days AT (5 20 80 10) LEFTANCHOR font 0
LIST
"1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10"
"11" "12" "13" "14" "15" "16" "17" "18" "19" "20"
"21" "22" "23" "24" "25" "26" "27" "28" "29" "30" "31"
ID listID_days AT ( prevleft prevtop prevwidth prevheight) VISIBLEITEMS 14 NONUSABLE FONT 0
POPUPLIST ID triggerID_days listID_days
This would create a list for dates in a month, and the list would be handled entirely by the OS, so you could open the list, make a selection, and refer to the selection programatically using a LstGetSelection() command.
Like I said before, really simple in PilRC/GCC, and it must be equally simple in CW once you know how.
Bob.
