Hi, is it possible to add a new row to the DropDownDW list or edit it? I have the issue when users don't want to select any from the drop down and in that case it should pull everything from the database related to that report but actually when users leave the drop-down blank, it reads that like an empty string. Thank you

I don't have any experience with Infomaker.

Can't you add rows using UNION ALL to add more rows of your choices along with your regular select statement?

Hi Luka;

  Absolutely!

  1. Use the GetChild() command to get the address of the DDDW
  2. Then using the DDDW's address - any DataStore command (ie: InsertRow(), DeleteRow(), SetItemXxxx(), etc command can be used to modify the DDDW's buffer(s).

HTH

Regards .. Chris

You would need to use PowerBuilder for that as IM has no programming language. Sorry, I missed that your question was for IM.

Hi Chris, thanks for the prompt reply.



So, is it possible to do this in InfoMaker? Or if you can suggest any workaround? Thank you!

No. The only alternative is via a DB table update that feeds the DDDW as mentioned by BKR.
