Workaround for dblookupcombobox

Hello,

I'm having a quite urgent problem as my customer is stuck.

We allow articles to be linked to other articles in the same offer.

Therefore we present a dropdown of the articles in the offer where they can select the article that they want to link to.

Problem is if there 2 the same articles in the dblookupcombobox, he always picks the first article to link to (key seems to be the description where it should be the id of the record).

I know this is a long standing issue but is there any way to work around this for the moment in an nice way (I can add the primary key of the record to the description but that's not really nice...).

 

Thx,

Dominique

Hi Dominique

I don't know if your Listsource contains only 1 field or 2 fields where the 2nd is unique.
You could then show 2 fields instead of 1 field in your dblookupcombobox.
You can enter multiple fields with your Listfield, separated by a ;

Another alternative could be to create a calculated field and display it in your Listfield
