A Choose Window is a floating window containing a simple toolbar and a grid. It serves as a lookup screen allowing the user to select a specific value from the list of records in order to use it in a form field as input.
1.In Layout Designer start with creating a new object by using the "SwatChooseWindowStandard" template which only contains the toolbar and no grid or business entity objects.
2. In Design View add the grid and business entity objects to the choose window object by drag-and-drop after searching for these objects. In Links view add the "Data" link between the business entity object and the grid object and also the "Primary Sdo" link between the container and the business entity object.
3. Open the window repository object where the choose window is to be used and double click on the form to open the Form Builder and set the AxLookupDialog attribute value of a dynSelect form field object as the ChooseWindow object name previously created.
4. Make sure the ChooseWindow and dynSelect objects share the same business entity object.
At run time the ChooseWindow object will be displayed by clicking the small arrow icon of the input field or ALT-L after having selected the dynSelect field on the form.
