Patti,
Look at the ItemCnt function. It returns the number of items in the CSL
like:
Set var vListOfItems text
-- do some processing here to collect your selections from the listview into
the variable vListOfItems
SET VAR vItems Integer = (ITEMCNT(.vListOfItems))
The value of vItems is 3
When you know the count, you can iterate through the list using the SSUB
function
set var vCount integer = 1
Set var vItem text = null
While vCount < .vItems then
set var vItem = (ssub(.vListOfItems, .vCount))
-- do whatever you want with vItem here
set var vCount = (.vCount + 1) {increment the count for the next item}
endwhile

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Multicolumn Select in Var Lookup ListView
Hi,
I want to have a form in which a user can select a bunch of records, then I
do some other processing with these records. I'm using 7.6.
So I put a Variable Lookup ListView Box on my form, and selected the option
for Multicolumn select. When I show variables, Rbase has put the keys to all
the selected records into my one variable, separated by commas, just like I
had hoped.
But now I don't know how to use them. I'd maybe like to dump them in a
temporary table, but I don't know what kind of syntax to use to get at all
these different values for my variable.
Any help?
Thanks,
Patti Jakusz
