VarDrop_Box Tbl$ and TblWidth

[James Zukowski]

We're still using v15.1 (but not for long!), and the 'Tbl$ and 'TblWidth properties don't seem to exist on the VarDrop_Box object, even though they're in the properties list in the documentation. Any idea when they were added to the object?
Thanks!

Hi James,

Variable Drop Boxes don't actually support those properties. The documentation is mistaken in listing them as properties.

It is probably not supported since with a variable drop box anything can be input. So what happens if they input something not in the table what is it translated too etc.

Maybe there is a way to make it work. If you desire we can create a wish list item to look into if these properties can be added to var drop boxes. Let us know how you would want it to work.

Unfortunately we are just about to do a release so any change to the doc will not be till the next release.
