Fill a listbox dynamically by choosing a dimension

I employ an input box which succesfully captures chosen dimensions in variables.

While referring to these variables in a graph, they dynamically take the chosen dimension as stored in the variable.

The expression used in the chart is simply a referral to the variable, for instance : vChosenDimension.

I did the same in a listbox while choosing expression instead of an existing field, but.. the listbox remains empty.

Do you know how to refer to a variable to have a dynamic listbox?

Have you tried

=$(vChosenDimension)

as field expression in your list box?

Hi Swuehl

Thanks for the advice,now it works, great. So I have to exclamate the default state through $, didn't know because i thought variables ignorant to  states

Here, $ does not indicate the current selection state like in a set expression, it is indicating a so called dollar sign expansion (please check out the Help file for more infos on that).
