Example 1
The following example sets a choice list for a shipping field. If the shipping is overnight, then the choice list is set to shippers who can ship overnight. Otherwise, it is set to the standard shippers:
If([Shipments]Overnight)
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME([Shipments]Shipper;"Fast Shippers")
Else
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME([Shipments]Shipper;"Normal Shippers")
End if
Example 2
Associate the "color_choice" list as a simple pop-up/drop-down list named "DoorColor":
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME(*;"DoorColor";Choice list;"color_choice")
// in this case, the 3rd parameter (constant) can be omitted
Example 3
You want to associate the "color_choice" list with the "WallColor" combo box. Since this combo box is enterable, you want for it not to be possible to use certain colors such as "black", "purple" etc. These colors are placed in the "excl_colors" list:
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME(*;"WallColor";Choice list;"color_choice")
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME(*;"WallColor";Excluded list;"excl_colors")
Example 4
You want to remove the list associations:
// removal of a choice list
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME(*;"DoorColor";Choice list;"")
// removal of list of values that are not allowed
OBJECT SET LIST BY NAME(*;"WallColor";Excluded list;"")
