A Button to Progress the Selection of a List Box?

So I have a question about selection boxes. This sounds like something that should be doable, but I am not sure where to start.

Is there a button selection that can be used so that when it's clicked, it moves down to the next selection in the list box for you?

I have a list box on one of the reports I create that has a wide variety of data to select. When my end users use this list box to select the criteria, they have to scroll back down the list to find the next client. A lot of these clients are the same until the 4th or 5th character and can be confusing to navigate or remember which one was selected last.

YES! This looks like exactly what I am trying to accomplish and I knew there had to be a way, unfortunately I cannot get it to work. I set everything up how you have it and I believe I understand how you are doing everything, but it just doesnt seem to work. Maybe you can take a look at what I have and verify I am not missing something? I have included a limited load/scambled data version.

Hi Jeremy,

I had a look into your app. You did everything right.

There are two things which could be improved to get you to your goal.

i) "In my example the field's name is 'Modelname'. Which is sorted alphabetically ascending before having been loaded." I think this is the key! Looking into your app shows me the field major is not sorted.

I cannot do this because this needs a reload...but you can try.


ii) The sorting in your multibox for field major should be "Only({1}MajorRank)" and not "Only({1}Major)".

Hope this helps
