Concomp Database
New Form withTable Customer
Add variable Lookup ComboBox
Variable Assigned to vCustID integer
Lookup Settings Tab:
Source Table>Customer
Source Key>CustID
Load ComboBox from Column> Company
When I Quickly type Oly it goes to "Olympic Sales".
When I Quickly type Ope it goes to "Open Systems"
Now if you press return and assign the selection to a variable, it will "stick"
on that selection until you set the variable to null, so you might not be doing
that before trying another selection afte the first one.
I added this eep to the onclick of the combobox and assign the selected variable
to another so I could set the selected back to null:
set var vcustidtx = (ctxt(.vcustid))
recalc variables
set var vcustid = null
return
