Dear RevSoft,

(Request from Andrew…)

Would it be possible to modify POPUP's default behaviour so that the 'Select All' button is not enabled if there is only one item in the popup list? It only confuses users otherwise

(I know we have the source code, but it would be nice not to have to worry about future upgrades!)

Thanx

What about the OK button?

When there is only one item

many users think the OK button means

"select that one item".

I think that no matter how many items there are

in the popup, the OK button (and the Clear button)

should be disabled as long as nothing is selected.

We have a problem with 'ALL' in that all fields

are returned. The following SELECT falls over

because the list returned is too long:

  select customer '1' '2' '3' ...... '10000'

In this case it would be more convenient to have

nothing returned - the subsequent SELECT is then:

  select customer

The 'ALL' option makes a popup more user friendly

as the user knows explicitly that they are selecting

all records.

Not selecting any fields in the popup and getting

ALL can be confusing.
