Hi Naomi,
unless the company is paying you by the job and not by the hour, they would do well to find the key and/or the original receipt and then upgrade to the current version. At that point, with key in hand, you will be able to use VPM in the manner intended, and I think with much better results than you are getting. It's an incredibly productive framework when used as designed.

PS: if you are being paid by the job instead of the hour, you would do well to find that key and receipt and follow the above.

>>I'm not going to be much help here. a) I work in 9.0, because all our builders and library subclassing and library additions were made to work with 9.0; b) when I want to build a lookup, I use the builder I built 4 or 5 years ago, and it just works; c) while I have VPME 9.1 here, I'm not in a position, time-wise, to fire it up and figure out what's doing wrong here. Now, you do have lPicklist set to .T. on the control? Of course, without looking I couldn't tell you whether they still have lPicklist on the control in 9.1. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
