Re: [U2] [UV] TEXT box subroutine
I find for pull down text boxes Accuterm works!, I used a LISTB (tab separated line output in an execute statement capturing the return of list data, looped through the data and separated the lines and fields then passed it to accuterm list box.

Re: [U2] [UV] TEXT box subroutine
I'm interested in hearing why accuterm is so bad and why Openinsight is preferred. One of the consultants I work with uses both and prefers accuterm. I'm liking accuterm the more I use it for GUI and have presently concluded that OI is a database instead of a front end/emulator. It's easier to implement a new emulator like accuterm with its features than a new database conversion.
