The client needs to pick an inventory item based on a description contained in two 60 character fields within in a dbf. The approach I'm trying is to create an array - pos_sel(1,3) containing some information about the item - no, class, qty-on-hand - as pos_sel(1,1) and the two description fields loaded into pos_sel(1,2) and pos_sel(1,3). In using GET for the list, only the first element appears in the pick list.
Next, I tried importing the array into a dbf so a BROWSE could be used. As expected, each item appeared on one line.
I'm considering creating a routine for loading each element as a separate record in a dbf and then use a BROWSE as a pick list with all records being listed but only the first element of each item available for selection...
I hope there is a better way. Suggestions would be appreciated.
