Pre-Browse Criteria Form Question
Posted: Sun May 19, 2013 9:58 am
I'm setting up criteria forms which lead back to browse screens instead of reports, like similar "find" and "query" functionality in other databases (Filemaker, Access, etc.).
This is a great thread about doing this:

(I agree with the original poster there that this greatly expands nuBuilder's functionality beyond browse search.)
Two issues have come up. The first, which I solved, is apparently you can't use openBrowse() directly in Extra Action Buttons; you have to put it in a Custom Code function called from the Extra Action Button.
Second, and this is the question, Listboxes apparently don't work the same in this context. Instead of creating a hash-variable temp table, they return one index value, which defeats the purpose of using a Listbox. Has anyone encountered this and knows how to fix it, or does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks!!!!
