Creating Control List Selectors

Publication 2711-6.0

Use the States tab on the Control List Selector dialog to:

edit and format the text for each state

enter a value for each control list state

restrict access to states in a Piloted Control List

add or delete states as necessary

To configure the states of a control list selector:

1. Click the States tab on the Control List Selector dialog.

Each row in the spreadsheet represents a state in the control list
selector. The fields in each row define the text and visual
characteristics for each state.

The initial default is 16 states (row 0 to row 15).

2. Edit the fields as necessary.

3. Click OK to exit Control List Selector dialog.

Value field appears only if Value
was selected in the Write area of
the Properties tab.

Access field appears only
for a Piloted Control List.

Editing Number of States

A Control List Selector supports a maximum of 255 states (0 to 254
rows). Use only the number required.

To add states to a control list selector:

1. Hold down the right mouse button and choose Append State from

the popup menu.

A row is added at the end with the next available state number.

2. Repeat step 1 for each state you want to add.

Each state you add is created with the defaults from State 0 and
default text (ST 0, ST 1, ..., ST 254).

To delete states, select a row number and choose Delete State from
the popup menu.
