Hi,
I hope this question is not to stupid.
I have a combobox filled with a valuelist.
Now I need the string of the actual record from this box. I get the id ( my pkey) but do I really have to requery to get this string. Pls point me to the documentation, or give me a code example.

Thx
Rainer

Hi Rainer,

You want to look at the function application.getValueListDisplayValue()

Hi Robert,
thx for the fast response.
Now I have got it.
Param1 is the name of the stringlist, or the var containing the name.
Param2 is the dataprovider…
A living example would be good, better a video…

Thx again
Rainer
