Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Do you mean just the selected value or all possible values? Why do you need this particular set-up?

      Re: Dynamic List Box

      I have a Purchase Order Application.
      On the form I have a Dymamic list box that summarizes the cost codes and the amounts ordered for each costcode on that particular PO.Works very well and allows the users to view immediately a Cost summary of that PO.
      It would be nice to have a dynamic list box on the report so I would not have to be changing code every time they the costcode limit.
      Right now I have a limit of 6 unique costcodes on a single PO.When the user saves the record, it copies the information in the dynamic list box to the PO Header table.This allows me to print the costcode summary on the reports.
      If they have seven or more then I have to change the code.

        what I have is a website for real estate listings but I'm currently work on and not getting too far.

        There are certain things most people look for when buying or renting a home. All I want to do is ask these questions in a list form' if a home has a certain feature they will click the box.

        The best thing would be asked a simple question like... is it a waterfront home? If it is a waterfront home they will click the box. Naturally it is not a waterfront home they will leave the box blank.

        They will continue with another question

        I should also have the opportunity to uncheck the box. At the end you have the opportunity to accept the items are clearly I am concerned over and help you greatly appreciated because I'm very new at this

        to send a zip file or any other information you may have

          Dean,
          what I have is a website
          So is this actually a web application question?? If so you should find the appropriate forum for the version you have to post this question...

          I noticed you have been asking for many explanations in other threads regarding xdialog scripts involving checkboxes....these really have nothing in common with the web side. A suggestion---find the correct forum for your version of Alpha, write out exactly what you want to accomplish, what you have tried, what worked, what did not work, and then ask very specific questions.

          I don't mean to pick on you and only state the above so that others can see how to post questions and such...I hope you take this in the way I am intending.
          Mike
