Combo Boxes (OpenInsight Specific)

We have a combo box drop down that displays a list from a table.
The popup is fine. When we select the row, the appropriate row id is placed in the combo box. No problem.
However, we also have a edit line for the description that matches the row id for the combo box. The only way that the desciption is populated is for us to either click on the edit line or click below the edit line if the edit line is read only.
Is there a way to populate the desciption at the same time that the row id is placed in the combo box?

Andy,
In the CHANGED event of the combo box do a Send_Event(Ctrl, "CALCULATE") call to your editline.

Thanks Don - We'll give it a try.

Don, We tried the send event like you suggested. We must be missing something. We tried the change event and also the char event. Neither of these were activated. Any idea where we are going wrong?

Andy,
Forgot to mention that you need to reset the DEFPROP property for the symbolic to recalc correctly. Here is a sample of code we use that works:
[list]Set_Property(@Window:".COB_STATUS", "DEFPROP", Param1)
Send_Event(@Window:".EDL_STATUS_DESCRIPTION", "CALCULATE")[/list]
