I want to use a combo box on a form to select the record to be viewed or edited on the same form.
I would like to start typing in the last name of the person to be selected in the combo box and have the highlighted cursor move to the portion of the combo list that contains the first typed letters where the operator my hit enter if the correct name is highlighted or select the wanted name from the portion of the list displayed.
What is the best way to do all this?
Warren,
As you know, there are 50 good ways to skin a cat!
The best option to achieve your goal is to use Variable Lookup ComboBox to get the value in a variable and then use the appropriate commands, actions using either "On Exit From EEP" or "On Click EEP".
For a sample and all details, take a look at the "SearchCustInvoice" form in Running R:BASE Your Way! (Part 9).
RRBYW9 > RRBYW9.DAT > Sales > Re-Print Invoice ...
Database: RRBYW9 Form: SearchCustInvoice
Hope that helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
