ItemSelect Listbox List Based upon Another in the Same Dialog Box?

Keywords:    dynamically update dialog boxes

Question:

Can you have an ItemSelect Listbox display a certain list based upon a value returned from another previous Item Select Listbox in the same dialog window?

eg. Printer (printers available)

Options (duplexing, envelope tray, etc.)

Based upon the item selected at the start, can you provide a specific list for another listbox?

If WIL Dialog Editor can't do this, is there another WIL program or control that will do this?

Answer:

Sorry, no. One dialog box at a time. Dialog cannot be dynamically updated.

You could 'repaint' the dialog box with a slightly different layout, and with a new itemselect listbox.
