Can I set item in datawindowchild using setitem function

[jAvinash]

I am facing a problem regarding dynamically populating my dropdown datawindow. I want to populate the dropdown datawindow in datawindow 1 with the column values of the 2nd datawindow.
for this I have created dddw from a dummy table by selecting null from dual. and now I want to populate this dddw. can someone help me in doing this....

Avinash,

You don't really need the external dw when you have the source data already populated in dw 2. Simply use ShareData() to share data from dw 2 to your dddw:

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

dataWindowChild ldwc
//
IF dw_1.GetChild( &quot;<dddw-col-name>&quot;, ldwc ) = 1 THEN
ldwc.SetTransObject( SQLCA )
dw_2.ShareData( ldwc )
END IF

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

ShareData() is so very easy to use!
