ExecuteSpinner & Prompt

[johnaaronrose]

When ExecuteSpinner is executed, it populates the Spinner OK but shows the first item's value in the Spinner 'label' i.e. before the user clicks on the 'label' to expand the Spinner 'label' to a list. This gives a misleading impression to the user: namely that (s)he has selected this first value. Given that there is a Spinner.Prompt value (which is displayed when the user clicks the Spinner 'label'), it would be nice (for the user) to have this Prompt initially displayed in the Spinner 'label' before (s)he clicks the Spinner 'label'.

I just put the link to my updated class in your other post that was along these same lines. It should help. I don't have an ExecuteSpinner port to work with it, but if you can get a list you can send it to the Combobox with SetItems to get what you want. The Class itself does have a method of restoring control values from a database cursor too that you could look at along with SetItems to create your own function like ExecuteSpinner.
