REFRESHLIST keyword

Applies to

Custom load methods that use drop-down lists to filter values

Description

This keyword signals to a custom load method whether or not the user pressed the F2 key to filter values in a drop-down list.

Syntax

REFRESHLIST( )

Remarks

If a list of values has already been done on a field, the result can be cached. F2 indicates that the list should be regenerated rather than being pulled from the cache. A custom load method might use the input value to filter the range of returned values, but in the case of F2, it should return all values without that filter. The REFRESHLIST keyword gives the custom load method a parameter value that it can use to determine whether or not to apply the filter.

These are the possible values for this keyword:

  • 0 signifies that the user did not press the F2 key to filter the values in the drop-down list.
  • 1 signifies that the user pressed the F2 key to filter the values in the drop-down list.
