Dennis: Once you retrieve the value from a pop-up, whys don’t you just change the value of the column via an UPDATE command from within the same EEP?

Then the users can just press Ctrl-V to paste it.   SET CLIPBOARD .variablename   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sami Aaron Software Management Specialists 913-915-1971 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________ From: rbg7-l@rbase.com [ mailto:rbg7-l@rbase.com] On Behalf Of Dennis Fleming Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 4:37 PM To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - DBGrid RB 7.1 I moved a processing screen from a scrolling region to dbgrid and it has really help smooth the feathers on some of our users. Slow hardware/networking can make good s/w look bad and vice versa. I've lost the popup capability in the rows/cells where the user can pick a value. I now have a button outside the dbgrid where they can view a list and type in a value. Is there an easy way for them to copy/paste from the list into the desired cell/row?
