Dev Studio Version 7.1.4 dynamic selection list for a field

I have Dev Studion Version 7.1.4 installed. If I set up a parameter in a procedure then use the html tool to 'run' the procedure and create a 'dyanmic list' using the parameter tool all is fine.

If I use the dev studio procedure where if assistant and create a dyamic selection list the list comes up empty. I swear I did this in an earlier version and it worked.

However, if I look in the 'help' for dynamic list, it really is for a 'static list' where you get the variable.

Has anyone else had this issue? Hopefully I've supplied enough information. Should we be talking to IB?

Leah,

If you give me a little more info...I'll try it Here. We are still testing 7.1.4 on old programs and have no new development yet.

In Dev Studio I was trying to create a dynamic selection on a term in student course registrations as the term will always be a changing value over time. If I use the 'where if' assistant, select for the term as a variable and say I want a dynamic list, enter the mfd and element number for the values to build the list, do ok ok and try to run the procedure, I get the drop down list so to speak, but it has no values in it.

If I use the html option to create a page from which to generate the page, the html box is populated just fine. Hope this makes sense.

I tried it on the Car file and I had values....
Here's the code it generated.
TABLE FILE CAR
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
WHERE MODEL EQ '&MODEL.(FIND MODEL IN CAR).MODEL.';
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
