I only used the dialog to bring up all names starting with a particular letter or more, then you can use the walkmenu (on) to get to the ones you want.
In your scenario, you are bringing up everone except those with tabcode X.
From there you should be able to type the first few char's to get to the one
you want.

Bernie,
I am not using a dialog box, instead I am using the CHOOSE command so I can
choose multiple items in the list (see my coding below).
Joel
CHOOSE vlocation FROM #VALUES FOR TabSelect, TabLabel + FROM Locations + ORDER BY TabSelect ASC + WHERE TabCode <> 'X' + CHKBOX 20 + TITLE 'Locations' + CAPTION 'Choose Location(s)' + LINES 10 + FORMATTED + OPTION WINDOW_CAPTION SMALL + |TITLE_BACK_COLOR WHITE + |TITLE_FONT_NAME ARIEL + |TITLE_FONT_SIZE 10 + |TITLE_FONT_COLOR TEAL + |TITLE_BOLD ON + |TITLE_ITALIC OFF + |TITLE_UNDERLINE OFF + |TITLE_STRIKEOUT OFF + |LIST_BACK_COLOR CREAM + |LIST_FONT_NAME ARIEL + |LIST_FONT_SIZE 10 + |LIST_FONT_COLOR BLACK + |LIST_BOLD ON + |LIST_ITALIC OFF + |LIST_UNDERLINE OFF + |LIST_STRIKEOUT OFF + |WINDOW_BACK_COLOR WHITE + |BUTTON_OK_CAPTION OK + |BUTTON_CANCEL_CAPTION Cancel + |BUTTONS_BACK_COLOR WHITE + |BUTTONS_SHOW_GLYPH ON SET VAR vlocation = ('('+.vlocation+')')

whenJoel, In a dialog I ask for part of a name. With walkmenu on, key in an S all the S's come up and I type sec and it takes me to the first name that starts with sec. Is that what you want?
