Bob, I'm assuming that your code does "pre-selection" for you. If so, the variable list view can do it as well as other controls mentioned by Razzak.
However, you say you want to "obtain the value" of a selected record, you will have multiple values.

However I did not see how to "preselect" a record in the variable list view. This is an item master. The user is going to select an item, but I need to start at the most likely item to be selected. I do not see how to find the item index. There is no where clause?

Display 15 records in a scrolling region Example: 123. Test 124. Testa 125 Testb 126. Testc 127. Testd Etc I need record 126 pre-selected/highlighted with the ability to select any other record in the 2000+ item list So when the control is called, it may need to start the display at record 900 - 915 and have the ability to scroll forward or backward Thanks Bob Thompson LaPorte, IN 219-363-7441 Sent from my iPod
