Using Auto Pop-Up Lists in the Siebel Handheld Client

Sometimes when a user opens a view, the user must select a value from a pop-up list to fill in a required field. You can configure the view so that the pop-up list automatically opens when the user opens the view. If you do this, the user does not have to tap the control to open the pop-up list.

To configure a pop-up list to open automatically, use the AutoPopupField user property. For more information about this user property, see AutoPopupField User Property.

To configure a pop-up list to open automatically, add the user property on the applet with Name set to AutoPopupField.

Depending on the type of applet, this property is set differently:

• For list applets, set the AutoPopupField property to the Business Component field name.
• For form applets, set the AutoPopupField property to the name of the control.
