Popup tab - Edit Cell dialog

Use this command to create a popup list box from which the user can select in the Form Mode (with or without editing enabled). A popup cell can be a Numeric, Alphanumeric, or Date cell to select the Popup Cell Attribute. The cell does not have to be set to input for the user to make a selection off of the popup list, however if the user wants to deviate from the list, the cell must be an input cell.

Note: We recommend to not use the Hide/Skip Blank option for blank popup cells because in form mode blank popup cells are given a width so that the user can click on the cell. However, blank popup cells in print preview or when printed are given no width and therefore do not use up any space.

Popup Type

Select whether the information used to create the popup is to be entered here or taken from an existing Working Papers/Time database.

Manual

Create a popup cell based on information you create in this dialog.

Database

Create a popup cell using information in Working Papers/Time databases. In order to use this command, you must create a browse definition file. To do this, access the Tools/ Options sub-menu and then click Browses.
