Lookup for all available table names

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I want to get a lookup for all available table names in the system. I know to achieve this on a dialog with

dialogTableName = dialog.addFieldValue(ExtendedTypeStr(TableName), this.tableName(),"@SYS11906");

But now I want a lookup on a stringedit/combobox on a form. The only way I know is to create a table with a field bounded to RefTableId/TableName EDT and use a datamethod on the combobox. I'm not sure which component to use also, stringEdit or combobox?


Is there any way to achieve this without the need to make a new table? Thanks in advance.

    Denny,

    You can use the EDT TableName in StringEdit control & you will be able to get all the Tables in a lookup
