Steve,
TRUE, without quotes, is not the same as 'TRUE'
This is the second time in about 2 weeks (I think the other was Jan Barley)
that made an inference that
PROPERTY MyWhateverObject REFRESHLIST TRUE -- no quotes
and
PROPERTY MyWhateverObject REFRESHLIST 'TRUE' --quotes
operate differently.
I have never experienced any trouble with noqoutes. Can either of you
reliably replicate this in the latest versions and have you reported your
results to RBTI if so?
Jan

Razzak, Et Al., I've persisted and discovered some things along the way.
Namely:
When it comes to VLULB Properties, REFRESH is not the same as
REFRESHLIST
TRUE, without quotes, is not the same as 'TRUE' (I guess I'm a bit
tired ...)
When I figured these out, my VARIABLE LIST BOXES worked BEAUTIFULLY.
Then, and this one is WAY COOL, but surely known to at least some
smaR:t ones alR:eady,
- When I had CTRL-C'd some form objects to replicate them on the
form
- And inadvertently pasted them into RBEDIT, I got a "text
definition"
Of those objects, including properties and values.
MAN, OH MAN! It's like seeing the muscle and bone, without the
skin.
Hope I'm not revealing something, but surely someone else has discovered
this already.
Cool Stuff and I'm Continuing,
Steve in Memphis

I'm taking the example form, CustomerManagement, from RRBYWNN, as
a starting point for something I want to do. The wrinkle here is
that I want to VariableLookupListViews (VLULV) rather than that
form's one. I want the first/leftmost to represent a superior
point in a relationship hierarchy and the second/middle one to be
populated only by values of subordinate records, somewhat like a
parent->child relationship.
Then, the selected value in the middle/second VLULV will determine
the values for the fields in the detail section of the form, just
like in CustomerManagement.
For example, if I select 'Wills, Steve' in the first VLULV, then
I only want to see 'Pete' and 'Rebecca' in the second VLULV. Then,
if I select Rebecca, I would see, for this example, details about
her toys in the rightmost group box.
I'm sure this has been done, but it's the first time I've tried
this.
However, I've never done it and I'm having some troubles getting
the middle/second box to populate when click on a row in the
leftmost/first VLULV.
