[comp.sys.mac.programmer] 4D and list choices

bkahn@archive.webo.dg.com (Bruce Kahn) (01/04/91)

  Ive been using 4D for some time now and find it more than adequate for almost
any of my DB needs.  I have setup a small db to handle tracking of all Red Cross
'products' that are available to all chapters and do some inventory tracking for
me.  As part of the system Id like to be able to use a list for selecting the
product 'type' (ie: ARC = general item, Poster = duh, Cert = class/training
certificiates, etc) and Id like to set up the field so that once the value
is selected from the list, the cursor AUTOMATICALLY goes to the next entry
field.  I cant tell how to do this from any of my manuals (2.0/2.1) and would be
grateful if someone who has some more experience w/4D could help me.
  Oh, the field is defined as ASCII 10, Mandatory in my structure.  Sound ok or
should there be something different?
