Drop-down lists remove all selected values and add values to the list of selected filters. Like check boxes and option buttons, drop-down lists must be associated with filters. You do not need to specify values, because drop-down lists load the values automatically when filters are set or when frames are activated. You can use drop-down lists to set one filter value at a time.
To load values in a drop-down list in ascending or descending order, add ^a or ^d to the control name.
Drop-down lists can include the following additional entries.
Filter name
Ignore filter command
To remove a filter name from the top of the drop-down list, add ^hidename to the name of the control.
To include the filter name again, change ^hidename to ^showname in the name of the control, or remove ^hidename from the control name.
To remove the Ignore keyword from the top of the drop-down list, add ^hideignore to the name of the control.
To include the filter name again, change ^hideignore to ^showignore in the name of the control, or remove ^hideignore from the control name.
