Assigning Variable to Listbox!!

Hi

I just want to assign a variable to the list box which will trigger the event based on my selection in the list box.

Suppose I have a list box 'X' with different fields as "A","B","C" and want to create a chart which shows the %sales of A,B,C on selecting the respective field from the list box.

How can i assign the Sales% variable to my list box which will show graph as per my selection assuming my variable name is vsales.

Thanks

Right-Click "New Sheet Object" / ListBox

At "field" choose "Expression" (is the last option)

Include your var name there

Go to settings->variable overview->create a variable->and add definition as =GetFieldSelections(FieldName)
