Example Bug -- using the Drop button to toggle drop lists

[planetborn]

Greetings. Found the instructions for the code in the online manual, but the example appears to be missing the code it is attempting to feature.
Here is the code:
MyDb.dbEditParams="TableName=someTable,BookMar kFlds=0,RecordScope=Single,TableTag=BORDER=2,DropB utton=Drop.gif"

And the url of the example that needs it:
http://www.aspdb.com/v2/ShowSource.asp?SrcFile=/v2/V2_Edit3.asp

Scott,
Everything worked fine when I tried it.
The on-line doc and the on-line example both are correct.
What specifically are you complaining about?
Mark.

Specifically that in the doc code, this line:
EPAR
= "TableName=Employees, BookMarkFlds=0, TableTag=Border=2"

needs to read

EPAR = "TableName=Employees,BookMarkFlds=0,TableTag=B order=2,Drop=DropButton=
Drop.gif"

EPAR = "TableName=Employees,BookMarkFlds=0,TableTag=B order=2,DropButton=
Drop.gif"

Ok - interestingly enough, after not having the drop button display at all initially and having to figure out that I needed to add the additional code to the MyDb.dbEditParams line to get it to show up, now I find that it is turned on permanently, and I will have to research how to suppress it if I don't want it as an option when I have a drop down list displayed. Simply removing the code previously entered on the MyDb.dbEditParams line for the drop button does not remove the feature! Hmmm.... any suggestions?

Scott,

If you want to suppress the drop button, use dbUserLocalText.
See example APP-4 at http://www.aspdb.com/V2

Thanks Mark. Reminds me that I wanted to mention that dbUserLocalText must be a fairly new property, because it isn't listed on the drop down menu of properties on the search page for www.aspdb.com/Properties/ . It would be really helpful if you all could keep your specialized help and example pages separated as you have them for people to peruse, but replicate all the examples found on those many example pages to your search example page so you could have one stop shopping.
