I'm using the pop.up command to return a user selected list of desired records (keys) from a file.

What command parameter should I use to return multiple records to my collector window based on user selection (as opposed to just one record)?

Thanks for any help.

The syntax for the POP.UP is:

Return_Selections=POP.UP(col, row, file, display, format, mode, select, title, attritbutes, help, coordinates, type).

The select switch should be set to 1 for multiple selection

Hope this helps

Thanks for the help Joe but I'm still not out of the woods.

My values for the variables are as follows;

col=0

row=0

file=@buses"

display="

format=0:5:L::Bus\1:29:L::Manufacture\3:8:L::Capacity:"

mode=T"

select=1"

title=List of Wheelchair Buses"

attributes="

help="

coordinates="

type=1"

return.list=pop.up(col,row,file.display,format, mode,select,title,attributes,help,coordinates,type)

The value of return list is; one desired record key then a field mark then another desired record key, then another filed mark, etc.

I'm sure it would work if I returned a record mark instead of a field mark between desired record keys.

I might add that I'm doing a select to get the records I want before calling the popup command.

Thanks again,

Tim

How about:

Convert "field mark" to "record mark" in Return.List

Hope this helps
