Stored procedures
Deletes an element from a List Box, ListView or Combo Box control populated programmatically.
Remark: <List Box>.Delete can be used on the single-selection and multi-selection List Box controls.
Example
// Delete the selected element from "LIST_CustomerList"
LIST_CustomerList.Delete()
Syntax
<List Box control>.Delete([<Element index>])
<List Box control>: Control name
Name of List Box (or Combo Box) control to use.
<Element index>: Optional integer
Index of the element to delete from the List Box or Combo Box control. If this parameter is not specified:
  • in a single-selection List Box control, the current element is deleted.
  • in a multi-selection List Box control, the selected elements are deleted.
  • in a Combo Box control, the current element is deleted. If this control is an editable Combo Box control, the edit control is cleared.
Remarks

Cascading deletions

When deleting a set of elements, the elements found after each deleted element are moved. To perform cascading deletions, we advise you to start from the last element.
For example:
Index is int
FOR Index = LIST_CustomerList.Count() TO 1 STEP -1
LIST_CustomerList.Delete(Index)
END

Miscellaneous

  • To delete an element from a Table control, use <Table>.Delete.
  • <List Box>.Delete can be used on a "Combo Box" table column.
