SmartSelects

A SmartSelect is a special type of SmartDataField that performs a lookup on the associated SmartDataObject field; that is, it retrieves and displays a predefined set of values from which an application user can choose a single value. Inherited SmartDataField behavior ensures that the SmartSelect automatically displays the current field values and that modified SmartSelect values are passed back to the associated SmartDataObject field. Like the basic SmartDataField, the SmartSelect is intended for inclusion only in a SmartDataViewer.

Table 2–13 lists the SmartSelect files.
