Hi,

I build a wizard to update several field for each item.
To search the item I need to update I have 4 criteria.
One is the location (I amusing a LinkEDIT for that)
3 are fields (Assettag, Legacy itemtag etc..) and I am using a comboEdit to display the list of every records possible on each field like below.

RetVal = AmDbGetListEx ("SELECT Assettag FROM amPortfolio where assettag <> '' and Model.Parent.name <> 'LOGICAL' ORDER BY Assettag", "", ",", "").

The problem I have now is to read all the data and create hte order, the wizard need 20 seconds. This is not good and I was wondering if it was possible to use a LINKEDIT and not a ComboEDIT BUT I need to be able to select the field I want on teh portfolio table and not use by befault the Self of the Portfolio table.
 
Why do you want to show the list of asettags, instead of the list of Portfolio items themselves? (using the Self string, which you can configure...)
