Lee Brock Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I'm looking for something similar to the drop-down calendar option in Field Control Setup, but that would give me something like a day book schedule with times in 15 minute increments from 9am-5pm for the record date entered in the previous field on my form layout. Is there anything existing I can use in FM8.5? Or does anyone know how I could go about creating it? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Søren Dyhr Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Why have you ruled out to make a hardwired valuelist? There might be some kind of inspiration in this, pre8 method: http://www.spf-15.com/fmExamples/ ...although, a list of day-book times is somewhat easier to make, and less irregular, if it is irregular at all? --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Brock Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 :P Funny. Oh I love to be inspired...but I think you over estimate my abilities. I'm game - lead the way, Old-Hand. So, what am I looking for in the list of examples you gave? Date Picker? Can I convert that to Time Picker or something like that? I thought of just creating a value list with all the times, in my limited experience, I wasn't sure that was the best way. What do you mean by "Hardwired?" Humbly, Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Søren Dyhr Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 And it was indeed what I meant with hardwired, no calcs! --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldipalo Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 As usual, you were right. I thought about it for awhile when I was building this and realized thinking was the problem. Are you familiar with the term [color:red]KISS? Keep It Simple Stupid! Well after 10 minutes of thinking that is exactly what I said to myself. Hard code it and be done with it. It only took 5 minutes. : Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Brock Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 Thanks guys. Oh I like a good challenge and I can make a big project out of anything sometimes. So the moral of the story is: When In doubt, KISS. Works for me. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
