Base: Trying to create a lookup control with a listbox. Doesn't work

Attempting to create a lookup control in Base as per How do I create a lookup control in Base. But doesn’t work as the drop down list is empty.

Linux Sparky 4.13.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.13.4-1 (2017-10-01) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Libreoffice version 5.4.2.1.0+

The work around is to create a table containing the required values and use a SELECT statement within a combobox.

Hello,

If you want to specify your own items in the list box, input then in the properties under the General tab in the List entries item. Each entry should be on its own line (done with Shift & Enter) so entries A, B, C, D will result in "A";"B";"C";"D" when done.

Thank you. That works a treat.

This can be closed. Do I do it, or does an ‘administrator’?
