Using List Values to Populate UI Dropdown

[Dutch 4]

I'm using 4.0.66 and can't get list values to populate either UI List box ro UI Dropdown. I thought this had been corrected in an earlier release. Here's an example:

 

 

clear table(&DealerVehicles)

clear list(%VehicleYear)

clear list(%VehicleYear2)

create table from file("{$special folder("Desktop")}\\Vehicles.csv", &DealerVehicles)

set(#rowDealerVehicles, 1, "Global")

loop($table total rows(&DealerVehicles)) {

add item to list(%VehicleYear2, $table cell(&DealerVehicles, #rowDealerVehicles, 1), "Don\'t Delete", "Global")

increment(#rowDealerVehicles)

}

add list to list(%VehicleYear, %VehicleYear2, "Delete", "Global")

ui drop down("Vehicle Year", %VehicleYear, #VehicleYear)

ui list box("Vehicle Year", %VehicleYear, #VehicleYear)

Make,Year,Model

Acura,2011,MDX

Acura,2011,RDX

Acura,2011,TL

Acura,2012,TL

Acura,2011,TSX

Acura,2011,TSX Sport Wagon

Audi,2011,A3

Audi,2011,A4

Audi,2011,A5

Audi,2011,A6

Audi,2011,A7

Audi,2012,A7

If you use something like this, it works:

 

clear list(%cars)

define ui list {

add item to list(%cars, $read file("{$special folder("Desktop")}/cars.csv"), "Delete", "Global")

}

ui list()

ui drop down("cars", %cars, #cars)

 

But you need to refresh it by clicking on code view and then back on node view. here is the file I called:

 

 

 

cars.zip

That now works - does it also work with tables (multi-column lists)?

Hey John -- quick question for you....

 

Is it possible to use that drop down list inside a UI HTML Panel - and have it run a custom command when that drop down list is changed?

 

Thanks
