Hello Ladies and Gentleman's,
I'm one of the new, fresh people to this so accept my apology for naivety.

I want to create a form as a project status sheet. Among others I need a drop-down list where I can choose between green, yellow and red circles. I have seen that may be the Java command app.popUpMenu might could help, but till now I am not familiar with this.

Any support is much appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
Daniel

The popUpMenu or popUpMenuEx functions don't provide what you want. However, you can fake a popup by overlaying a series of fields representing the colors and their meanings. In the activator button you show that set of fields, and in the selector button you hide the whole group and pass the result further on.

Hope this can help.
