Does QV allow the creation of table variables?

For example if I want a variable to be something like: vList = A;B

I could then use that variable as a field in a list box and the available values would be A and B.

Input box constraints accomplish this but you can only select one value.

I know I can fiddle with the load script to do this, just wondered if there is a convention for doing it on the "fly".

Thanks, Dave

I tried this using the valuelist() function to create a list of values "on the fly", but that didn't work very well when I tried to use the values as selected in other graphs. I ended up making a island table with the values in the script.

So, there's no good way to create a listbox "on the fly" as far as I know.

Regards.

Bummer, it's kind of a pain to have to touch the load script every time we need to make the slightest adjustment. I suppose there is a way to build something in a macro/vb, but that's as bad as going back to load it. Oh well. Smile

I agree with Karl. You can create it on a data island.

If you want it to be more flexible, you can create the field as an input field, to be able to adjust it on the fly.
