Choice List control on List Data Type Field

[Ratan B]

Hi All,

We have one field with the data type LIST and it is not referring to any table, instead I have created some choices for that.

Now I have a requirement to control the visibility of those choices based on some condition.

I tried the g_form.addOption n removeOption but it's not working.

Any way to achieve this..??

Note : The field type is LIST not Choice

Thanks ????

Hi,

removeOption, etc. is only for select box fields. If your field is a list type, I believe you'll need to use a reference qualifier to hide those choices. Since it's not referencing a table, I'm unsure if that will work and you may need to create the choices as you did, then reference the sys_choice table and filter it to those choices, then filter it further depending on your need.

The "loophole" of what you did was to prevent creating a table to house the choices, but now that you need to filter them further, you'd want to now reference where those choices were made (because they live now on the sys_choice table).
