>>>Hello all
>>>
>>>I am creating a form to print a couple of labels, they will be printed on two different printers. I want the user to select a check box as to weather or not a label is printed and if it is, to select a printer from a ComboBox with it datasource set to an array. I use APRINTERS() to create the Array. Problem... some of the elements in the array start with (\) (\\G6-200\HP4V) which in turn disables them in the drop down list.
>>>
>>>What can I do to prevent them from being disabled in the Drop down List?

>>I think before displaying in the combo, you could modify array elements a little bit, e.g. adding space(1) on left. When selection is made, you can LTRIM() the space out.

>I thought that too, but I cant seem to find any info in the Help files or online docum. that explains anything about modifing array elements. Kinda like using a REPLACE command or something
For n=1 to alen(aPrinterarray)
aPrinterarray[n]=space(1)+aPrinterarray[n]
Endfor
