No. I had established the target variable as INTEGER on a casual assumption.

When the 'gotten' target variable is established as TEXT, all is right.

Thanks, Dennis, for pointing the way.

Is your target variable a TEXT type?
I believe all returned values from a getproperty are text.
It looks like you are getting the character number of the text into your
(integer?) variable

Subject: [RBASE-L] - GETPROPERTY ... ITEMINDEX: Reported Values

I have now a working Variable Lookup Combo Box ( vlcb_Sample )  displaying
seven line items from a seven-record table.

Variable values are selected from and reported out of the control as
expected.

I anticipate that a GETPROPERTY vlcb_Sample ITEMINDEX 'varname' statement in
the ON CLICK EEP would capture index values [ 0 - 6 ].

Instead, reported values are  [ 48 - 54 ]. 

How can this be?
