You can't do that. Custom properties are assigned to objects, not to the contents of those objects. There are a few ways to accomplish what you are trying to do, though:
- - You could use a custom property on the field itself to store the extra information for all of the lines in the field (scrolling list). Each line of the custom property could represent the corresponding line of the scrolling list, for example.
- - If each line in the scrolling list is guaranteed to be unique, you could use a custom property set as if it were an array, using the content of the scrolling list (which may be a string, it does not need to be a number) as an index into the "array", and storing the other values in the array.
- - You could use a separate, hidden (if desired) field to store the extra information
etc.

I've just purchased Revolution Studio after playing with the demo for 30 days. I am really impressed with this product! I have used Realbasic, Visual Basic, Toolbook, Hypercard and SuperCard at some point in my career but this is probably the best RAD system I've seen to date.
I've been getting up to speed using the video tutorials and reading the archives of this mailing list and have had great success in my learning curve. I am especially interested in custom properties but I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding them. Which brings me to my question:
How would one store a custom property for each line in a scrolling list? For example: a list of names and the custom property would contain that person's age or something like that.
Hopefully this makes sense!
