- Hi everybody,
-
- I am just about to rip my hair out:
-
- Is there a way to have a pad promt in a dbase menu change?
- What I am trying to do is have a menu, the user selects it, a popup
- appears, the user makes a selection. Depending on the selection,
- a prompt in the menu changes.
- Alternatively, a text field could appear in the same row (0) as the menu
- and change contents depending on the selection. I tried a say to line 0,
- but it doesn't overwrite the menu.
-
- Any hints/ideas would be greatly appreciated!
-
- Thanks,
-
- Chris
