I'm new to accuterm and using universe.  I have an ATLISTBOX listing the contents of one of my index records and with the cursor or arrows it works fine.  I would like users also to be able to type the "Line number" I supplied with each list line then hit the enter key.  I know this is the old way, but the users are used to that.  Is is possible to trap that in ATLISTBOX?

Hi Dale -

Sorry - no way to do line numbers with ATLISTBOX. But you can enter the first letter of an item in the list. Each time you press that letter, the next item that begins with the letter is selected. I suppose if you limited your list to 9 items, you could prefix the item with a line number 1 - 9, and then the 1 - 9 key would select. But it only works for the first character, so you could not enter 14 to select the 14th item - it would select the first, then the fourth.

Thanks,

Pete

But later on, when I'm really slick, I could make up my own window to do this, right?
