The variable list view was my first choice, but I am not seeing how to determine what the desired item index value would be.
When I call the control, I know that I need item "x" preselected. The item number is alpha numeric field. So item "595A" may be the 632nd item in the sorted item master field. I do not see how to obtain the value 632 before calling the list control. Thanks, Bob Thompson LaPorte, IN 219-363-7441 Sent from my iPod On Nov 6, 2014, at 10:43 AM, "A.
