Javier,

Thank you for your detail answer. I'll try it. It would be helpful to send
me the screen shots you mentioned, so not to 'rediscover the wheel'.

Jan,Razzak thanks for your comments

Subject: [RBG7-L] - RE: Refreshing multi table screens

Polychronis:
A pop-up can be configured in many ways; you can display more that one field
and return to the column a value that is not even displayed if you want to
do so. For example, you might want to select an employee ID but you can have
your pop-up display unique values for the employee Last name, First name and
pay rate and when you select one employee it will return his/her employee ID
(which was no even displayed) you can also format the pop-up display by
using the LJS or RJS or any other function and you can also change the
colors and fonts of the displayed data and titles; all in all a very
powerful utility.
I also use speed buttons that display list of selections using the CHOOSE
command, which again you can manipulate in any way you want; once you select
an option and retrieve whatever value you need into a variable, you can then
update and /or manipulate all the other columns in the record using the
UPDTADE or PROPERTY commands and then refreshing the display using the
PROPERTY TABLE your_table 'REFRESH' command.
Please let me know if you need examples and I can send you some screen shots
of pop-ups I use with their corresponding set-up.
Javier,
