Bill,

The lists are independent.  That is the problem. There is no desired linkage.

I can display the independent lists in scrolling regions.
I just cannot navigate the second, third, etc lists by clicking on the desired 
image in one of those lists.
The first image displays in each list

Dennis

I am unclear as to what you want to do with the 2 tables of images. When you 
click on an image from the first table do you want related images in the 2nd 
table to appear ?

You would have to make sure that the imageID in table 1 matches the imageId in 
table2. Also the picture location field name in table 1 should have a different 
field name in table 2.

The only common column name between the 2 tables is the imageId.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Multiple Unrelated Image Lists on one form
We are trying to create a form which would display and manage up to 4 sets of 
images.

Our initial attempt was to do two lists.

The only way we could find to display them was with scrolling regions.
We created two tables, and populated them with filenames.
We created a form which included the 2 tables.
The tables have no linking column, since there is no relationship to maintain, 
just 2 lists.
Each table is on a scrolling region, since that was the only way we could find 
to display them easily.

The first scrolling region works fine.

The second actually displays all its images (which surprised me because of my 
familiarity with how forms work.)
Problem is, we can only click the first picture.  Clicking on any other does 
nothing.
We can navigate the region with a navigation bar, but that is not what we want.

Is there any simple way to make the second region work the way we want?

We tried adding a common integer column to both tables containing zero.
This did not change the behavior of the second list.

Has anyone solved a similar problem?

At this point I'm wishing for a Variable Lookup Scrolling Region!!!
That would do exactly what we want on a variable form.
