@PopulateListElement()

Print Post Print Post  
Hello, I'm having a problem where I can't seem to "unpopulate" the list element when I go back to search mode. I've tried Clear() on Form Exit, on Retrieve Spec Open, and If @Mode() = 2. I've tried FormFieldValue(@Layout, Pictures_List, 0 , " ") on Form Exist, on Retrieve Spec Open, and If @Mode() = 2. All to no avail.

Not sure what the problem is, I didn't have this problem before. I got some other things to work, now this isn't working. Not sure why.

I've come to the conclusion that the layout element, for all intensive purposes, is cleared when I return to search mode, but I still have no explanation as to why the data still displays in the box, and/or how to clear it.

PopulateListElement() sets the options available on the dropdown of a Combo Box or the options available to be selected in a List Box. It does not SET the value of that element to be anything so unless you have set the value elsewhere, there is no value to Clear().

If you do not want the options that you set to display anymore, you need to set the options list to blank.

Code
Select All
PopulateListElement(YourElementName, "")
