Hi,
For no. 5 I think he means swhre you have amny entities to choose from on
screen. I use a pull tool called entitylist.
e.g.
At top of your.vm file
## Get the collection of existing databases, and
## make the first database selected, if no database
## has already been selected
#set ( $databases = $entitylist.getAllDatabases() )
#if (!$selectedDatabase && ($databases.size()>0) )
#set ( $selectedDatabase = $databases.get(0) )
#end
#set ( $selectedDatabaseId = $selectedDatabase.getRwDatabaseId() )
then in the form
....
<tr>
#rwLabelCell ("Database list")
<td width="$ui.screenWidgetWidth" >
<select name="selectedDatabaseName"
onChange="fireSelectionType(this.form, "database")">
#foreach ($database in $databases)
#if
($database.getRwDatabaseId() == $selectedDatabaseId)
<option
selected>$database.getDatabaseName()</option>
#else
<option>$database.getDatabaseName()</option>
#end
#end
</select>
</td>
</tr>
....
Hope it helps
