Søren Dyhr Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Try with: GetValue ( ValueListItems ( Get ( FileName ) ; "theList" ) ; RecordID ) Where "theList" in quotes should be the name of your valuelist! --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies chaletart Posted September 5, 2007 Author Newbies Share Posted September 5, 2007 ok, it is pulling from the value list but not what I select.... it is pulling the first item in the list... I know I am missing something really basic. Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Søren Dyhr Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 it is pulling from the value list but not what I select You - not the autoentered value?? You could have any numeric field at RecordID's place in the calc, let it be the field you enter a number in.... make sure to use the right kind of field types! --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
