Dev Studio v8.0.08 HTML Composer GUI.

I have chained two controls. One control is a textbox. The second is a listbox. I want the value of the textbox to be passed to the external fex that dynamically populates the listbox. This works when the textbox has a value. When it does not have a value, the fex for the listbox does not execute. I want the fex to execute regardless.

Any ideas?

Can't you just add an "ignore" value of either _FOC_NULL or FOC_NONE to the textbox control that passes if no value is selected from the textbox?

Remember, this is code generated by the GUI.

It appears the null textbox value is not triggering the chain to the listbox.

I have the "ignore" _FOC_NULL code in the fex that populates the listbox.

The complication that I did not mention in the initial post is that the textbox is populated by an "external" listbox. For the purposes of the GUI built page, this shouldn't make a difference.

CoolGuy! Thanks very much for the _FOC_NULL suggestion! I added some JavaScript to determine if the value was null, then I set it to _FOC_NULL, which allowed the chain to continue....

Thanks!

No sweat Francis! Glad I could return the favors. Any time.
