Dear all,

does anyone has already done, in a SKILL GUI, an automatic update of a stringfield when an item is selected by a user in a Combofield

 Thank you in advance for your help

 Regards,

    Loic,

    Assuming that your hash table has entries keyed off the values in the combo field, it would just be:

                ?callback "hiGetCurrentForm()->string->value=CCFhashTable[hiGetCurrentForm()->combo->value]"

    So for example, if you have:

    CCFhashTable=makeTable('myTable "No entry in hash")
    CCFhashTable["one"]="The number 1"
    CCFhashTable["two"]="The number 2"
    CCFhashTable["three"]="The number 3"

    and then use the code I provided earlier with the modified callback, it would do what you want (if I've understood you). These seems pretty obvious, so maybe I've missed something in what you're asking?

    Regards,

    Andrew
