Default How do I adjust wIntegrate WIN.LOOKUP input parameters - 01-03-2007 , 09:50 AM






I've been using WIN.LOOKUP to pop up user select lists. It works
great; however, it only runs through the list based on a single key
stroke.

Has anybody been able to adjust it to accept more than one key stroke?

In other words, if I have a list displayed and the user wants to enter
'12' the list first highlights '10' based on the one, and then
highlights '20' based on the two.

How do I allow the user to enter '12' and have WIN.LOOKUP highlight
'12'?

I am not sure you are going to be able to do that. The behavior is
inherent in the windows control. I have seen very few apps that do it
differently .. and those have modified listboxes

Yes to below. You'd have to find an activeX control that simulates the
select list appearance, there are some available on the web. If you want to
spend a month or two dealing with Windoze internals, you can write your own.
Not worth it in my opinion.
