Hi All,

I've got a colleague that is trying to populate a list box item
with a group of numeric values that represent highway route numbers.

The database view defines the route as a "number".

How can we create a numeric list box? The built-in functions populate_group, and populate_list both expect to get
varchar2 parameters.
Thanks,

Kevin

I think you'll find that it'll work just fine if your record group query selects numbers. It'll just convert the number to a varchar to use in the form and convert it back to number to apply to the database.
