Extract Global Variable array into a user selected dropdown list

Hi All

I am trying to extract the first row from the GLOB_ISSUE_SCHEME global variable array and list it as a user-selected dropdown list. I know how to use a REQUEST statement to list fonts using FONTNAMES_LIST, or list individually using a VALUES statement, but extracting from an array has me stumped.

Any input much appreciated!

Thanks!
Brendon

DIM _issue_vals[]
FOR i = 1 TO 7
	_issue_vals = GLOB_ISSUE_SCHEME[1]
NEXT i

VALUES "issue_strings" _issue_vals
