Hi Fellow Focus Users!

In the Apps Studio html page, I have no problems adding a dropdown and showing 2 columns... for example, account numbers and their descriptions. See first image.


But how can I do the same in the new 8202 New Page option? I use
WHERE PAYROLL_VIEW.COSTCENTRE_DIMENSION.COSTCENTRE EQ &OVCC.(OR(FIND COSTCENTRE IN PAYROLL_VIEW.COSTCENTRE_DIMENSION.COSTCENTRE)).COSTCENTRE.;
to show the dropdown and that works but how can I add the Description for each of those accounts, just like in the html version? Note: The description is in the same table. See second image


Any help appreciated! Thanks
