Select data from Combo box

[suchis]

I would like to know how to select data from a combo box and then use a button to respond to the selected item. I need this information for the creation of a macro that will allow the user to select from a combo and will be given the data associated with the selected item. I am using CognosScript Editor to create the macro.

I will be greatly appreciated if I could get this information as soon as possible.

suchis,

CognosScript Editor does not allow combo boxes. You may either have an editable text box or a list box. Unfortunately there is no support for combo boxes.

Thank you,
I decided to use the command buttons instead, which works perfectly.
