 Posted: Tue Jul 02, 2002 12:22 am Post subject: Combo Box Question |
 |
|
| during loading time, i load a file to a combo box. After finished loading, i enter a string into it. When i pushed a button, i want it to check whether the string i entered is already in the combo box item or not. If it's not in the list, i want it to popup a child dialog,asking about other information. Can it be done?? I dont want it to be a case-sensitive. I've been struggling with this for such time. Does anyone know??? |

Remember you can treat a Combo element pretty much just like a list, so you can use @MATCH().
Try this:
| Code: |
Title Combo Check
DIALOG CREATE,Combo Check,-1,0,240,87
REM *** Modified by Dialog Designer on 7/1/02 - 21:31 ***
DIALOG ADD,COMBO,COMBO1,5,32,180,21
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,Check,36,89,64,24,Check It
DIALOG SHOW
REM Load info into list here
LIST LOADTEXT,COMBO1
"Fred
"Bill
"Jim
"Joe
:Evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:CheckBUTTON
REM Check if the text entered is already in Combo1
REM %m will be 1 if the text is in Combo1
%m = @MATCH(Combo1,@DLGTEXT(Combo1))
if @GREATER(%m,0)
REM Goto Label to make child window for more info
goto CreateChild
else
info Text entered is not already in Combo1
end
goto evloop
:CreateChild
info Open child dialog and get info here
goto evloop
:Close
exit
|
Enter a name that's in the combo and click Check it. Then enter something that's not in the combo.

This may help. I think it is what you are looking for. It can
be refined to be better.
| Code: |
DIALOG CREATE,Add to combo Demo,-1,0,240,113
REM *** Modified by Dialog Designer on 7/1/2002 - 21:37 ***
DIALOG ADD,COMBO,COMBO1,12,24,180,21,,,list
DIALOG ADD,EDIT,EDIT1,48,28,180,19
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,74,66,104,24,Add/Check Text
DIALOG SHOW
list add,combo1,File1.txt
list seek,combo1,0
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:close
stop
:button1button
%%chk = @dlgtext(edit1)
if %%chk
%m = @match(combo1,%%chk)
if %m
Info %%chk was found in combo. Cannot add.
goto evloop
else
list add,combo1,%%chk
Info %%chk added to combo
goto evloop
end
else
Warn No text to Add/Check.
end
goto evloop
