Thank you, Emmitt!
Your tip helped me out.
For those intrested, here is the code applied to a Static text object in a
form:
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2038 OFF
DROP TABLE ttopfive
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE ttopfive +
(tregnr INTEGER, tkostnad CURRENCY, tslen=(SLEN(CTXT(tkostnad))) INTEGER, +
tsfil=(SFIL('.',(13-tslen))) TEXT, +
xyregnr=((CTXT(tregnr))&tsfil&(CTXT(tkostnad))) TEXT 30)
CREATE INDEX ittopfive ON ttopfive (tregnr)
INSERT INTO ttopfive (tregnr, tkostnad) +
SELECT TOP 5 regnr,kostnad FROM debitering ORDER BY regnr DESC
SELECT (SRPL(LISTOF(xyregnr),',',(CHAR(10)),0)) INTO varhint +
INDICATOR ivvaluelist FROM ttopfive
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2038 ON
RETURN
--------------------------end of code-------------------------
The code is placed as a custom form action and executed from
the forms afterstart eep with this code:
PROPERTY rbase_form_action toppfem ' '
PROPERTY statictext1 hint .varhint
PROPERTY statictext1 showhint 'TRUE'
RETURN
-------------------------end of code--------------------------
