Problem:
When I use the same selection box multiple times the value in the masterfield automatically gets added. How can I stop this happening?
Resolution:
This is quite a common (and frustrating) problem which a number of users have hit over the years. To correctly populate the selection box with the master field preset you need to do:
move "Preset" master-field
delete-list-item sb1 1 item-count
insert-many-list-items sb1 group-item item-count
refresh-object sb1
where:
master-field is the Dialog data item containing the selected choice.
sb1 is the object name of the selection box.
group-item is the Dialog data array containing the items to populate the selection box with.
item-count is the number of entries in our selection box.
This ensures that the selection box is cleared out prior to population.
