Coming back to this post.
Hoping someone can help me.
I cannot work out how to read a text file into a pulldown window in an object.
Is that possible? The pulldown window may have a different number of fields depending on the text file, not sure if this is an issue setting the size of the array. I assume arrays are static sizes.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Tom
