Hi.

I neede to add a default search value at a look up.

I called it like this, 

if lblPeopleID.Caption <> "" then

  strShow =   lblPeopleID.Caption

else

  strShow = "<Enter PeopleID>"

end if

 strID = LookUpByName ("Contact:Peopleid",strShow)

  IF strID <> -1 THEN

    objBASIC.SetCurrentContactID strID

  END IF

everything works, it shows the lookup and looks for the information, but im having a proble, when i execute the lookup like this:

Application.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke "Lookup", "Contact:Peopleid" 

In this way it shows a check that says "create a temporaly group containing all results"

My problem is that i need to add the defult value like the first way, and using the second way (doinvoke) there is no alternative parameter and i need the funcionality that the checks made.

What can i do?

Thaks for your help.

Try this instead:

With yourLookup

            .LookupRestrictField = "{COLUMNAME}"
            .LookupRestrictOp = " like " ' or = <> etc.
            .LookupRestrictValue = "yourSearchValue"
            .InitPopupText = "yourSearchValue"
            .Popup

End With

i will try.

Why this kind of problem happens?

I mean, the lookup form is a modal form from slx? o there is way that i can modify this form.

Thanks

Im sorry but im not very familiar with SLX.

How can i create an lookup object?

someting like this?

Dim objLook

SET objLook = Application.createobject("Lookup")

This does not work.

Thanks

I dont think that this solves the way that i call the lookup to get the check box visible
