listbox - multiple values

Hi, I tried to find the answer in the posts but didnt find it. I want to merge two columns in one listbox and search this two columns in a table. How can i do it?? For Example:

I have:

ABC
AAAAASDF111
BBBBBQWER222
CCCCCRTY333
DDDDDHJK444
EEEEEEHJKL555
FFFFFFOIY666
GGGGGAAA777
HHHHHVBN888
IIIIICET999

 

I want one listbox with columns A and B, as:

AAAA
ASDF
BBBBB
CCCCC
CET
DDDDD
EEEEEE
FFFFFF
GGGGG
HHHHH
HJK
HJKL
IIIII
OIY
QWER
RTY
VBN

 

And If I look for AAAA I want the result:

ABC
AAAAASDF111
GGGGGAAA777

Hi

If you mean

And If I look for AAAA I want the result:

ABC
AAAAASDF111
GGGGGAAA777

 

Then try this:

1) Create listbox with expression as field (last item on field selection list)

2) expression: A & ' ' & B

3) Search mode: Wildcard search

So if you search for AAA you can filter by both A and B fields. And ofc you can create concatenated field by script and use it directly.

Sorry, that doesn't make sense at all. What relation does the second record (GGGGG, AAA, 777) have with the value AAAA?

Sorry, I miss an A in column B. It was supposed to be:

ABC
AAAAASDF111
BBBBBQWER222
CCCCCRTY333
DDDDDHJK444
EEEEEEHJKL555
FFFFFFOIY666
GGGGGAAAA777
HHHHHVBN888
IIIIICET999

 

and result:

ABC
AAAAASDF111
GGGGGAAAA777

Hi,

Probably there are other better solutions, but I tried adding a key to the initial table and then a preceding load:

InitialTable:
LOAD * INLINE [
    A,	B,	C, key_A_B, key_B_A
AAAA,	ASDF,	111,1,1
BBBBB,	QWER,	222,2,2
CCCCC,	RTY,	333,3,3
DDDDD,	HJK,	444,4,4
EEEEEE,	HJKL,	555,5,5
FFFFFF,	OIY,	666,6,6
GGGGG,	AAAA,	777,7,7
HHHHH,	VBN,	888,8,8
IIIII,	CET,	999,9,9
];

SecondaryTable:
LOAD 
 A as A_and_B,
 key_A_B
Resident InitialTable;
Load 
B as A_and_B,
key_A_B
Resident InitialTable
