App Studio Events, combo-refill syntax

Hi Neil

Yes, I understand that, those were all independent approaches I took, not in combination.

Can we just simplify it to the below now?,
If I could see, find an example of this I would be satisfied

  1. put some data in a UD table (don’t worry about how it got there)
  2. create a dataview of that UD table
  3. populate a combo using the dataview

that should be EASY right ? :thinking: :face_with_thermometer:

I’m going to try to look for examples myself

Thanks

Update…after some more fiddling I did get this to work…

What I ended up doing was creating the dataview using the wizard,
I picked source type as ‘BO Service Call’, and selected Ice.BO.UD18Svc for the service call.

Then in my combo the only properties I had to set were ViewName, TextField, ValueField (and optionally Sort Column and Filters).

I’m still not sure why creating the view manually didn’t work, other than there is no opportunity to set the DataSource (BAQ or BO Service Call)…maybe that’s the key

Another thing I had incorrect which was adding to the confusion, was that when generating my UD table, I neglected to set the Company column. So when I was using BAQ designer to verify the table was populated it showed the records, but the combo tied to the new view still wasn’t pulling the data in until I set that Company column…that’s a lesson I won’t forget

Thanks again for your help on this, I’m closer to a solution now
