Im trying to populate a drop down object in a html form w/ a fex.

The doc indicates I should be able to reference an embedded or external procedure thru the Wizard.

Unfortuantely, the Wizard only has options for (when the Data Type Radio button is set to 'Dynamic'):

a. Default - which references masters/data
b. Explicit (Requests panel) - which only references fexes associated/bound into the html page already
c. other - references /ibi_apps/caster/devStudioLibrary.jsp page.

There doesn't seem to be a way, in the wizard, to find the fex which should be used to populate the drop down boxes.

I'm using Application Studio, not developer studio, since that is being retired.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

You need to define the fex in the Requests and Datasources tab on the right.

And when you get to "Requests & Data sources", there is a dropdown control in the upper left; use it and try "External Request --> WebFOCUS Procedure" to start with.

Thanks guys!
I thought it was something like that..I was able to get it to work..even w/ chaining 2 parameters together.
