refresh data in a listbox - FP2.6

[MelindaPeirce]

I have a FP2.6 app that has a form with 3 listboxes on it. The data source for the boxes are arrays. I would like to modify the array in the second two boxes after the user makes a selection in the first box. Basically, the first selection will limit the valid selections from the second box, and the second selection will limit the valid selections from the third box.
I can rebuild the actual array, but I can't seem to re-display the new information on the screen.
Anyone know how to do this?

thanks
Melinda

Have you tried using a &quot;SHOW GET <YourVarNameHere> ?

Sorry didn't complete the information I posted...

Have you tried &quot;SHOW GET <YourVarHere>&quot; where the variable is the one given to the second or third list box?

Yes, I had tried that, but I have since realized that my array is not rebuilding the way I expected it to. I will try the show get again, if I can actually get the array rebuilt correctly. Now I am trying to clear the existing array and release all like <arrayname> doesn't seem to work. (worked in command, but not when I run it in the program... hmmmm)

Is your SHOW GETS in VALID clause ?

I put it in the &quot;when&quot; clause and it seems to work great now.

thanks everyone for your help.
