Content (Property)

In french: Contenu

The Content property is used to read or write the whole content of a control:

List Box populated programmatically,
Combo Box populated programmatically,

This allows you to read or write all the rows in the control in a single line of code.

Note: On a List Box control or a Combo Box control, it is only possible to read the list of items.

The Content property can also be used on an Upload control to get the list of uploaded files.

Example

// Adds elements to the current content of the List Box control
LIST_List1.Content = LIST_List1.Content + CR + "Tommy" + CR + "Emma"

Remarks

Upload control

The Content property is used to get the list of files selected in an Multifile Upload control. The names of files are separated by CR characters (Carriage Return). For a single-file Upload control, only the name of the selected file is returned.

The file name corresponds to the path and name of the uploaded temporary file. For example: C\WebDep\Temp\File.upl
This property must be used in the "Receive files uploaded" event. In the other cases, this property returns an empty string.

This property is equivalent to the Value property.
