OK maybe I do MS an injustice. Here is what we can do that I think MS
cannot.
1. Show a preview of the current list in real time.
2. Change the starting value of the list to any value you like.
3. Change the text delimeters around each label to anything you like.
4. Change the text delimenters between levels of lists to anything you
like.
5. Do instant updates to preview to reflect the changes theusers makes to
their selection.
Can MS make lists elements like
<<2>>--<3>.(i)
<<2>>--<3>.(ii)
We can rather easily. How useful is this level of flexibility? I don't
know but Power Abi users can do it.
Cheers
Martin
