Using 7.2.028
After some testing, I was going to request that the user be allowed to enter a value if needed something not listed. Forget about it. It would be nice.........but forget about it.
I was able to use the Edit object in conjucntion with a "See Other Reason" value in the Combo Box. If "See Other Reason" is chosen, I check for a value in "Other" Edit box.
Part of code shown here for sample:
============================
Let>ComboHelp=Log Off allows Log on as a new user.%CRLF%Shut Down turns off power.%CRLF%Re Boot restarts computer
GetDate>Date
GetTime>Time
