The TYPE may be either STATIC or STATIC2 .
If you wish the display value and the return value for a given entry to be the same,
omit the semicolon and specify only one value. For example, the second item in the
following example is a single value for both display and return:
TYPE: VALUE,VALUE,VALUE,...
The return value in a LOV is saved as the value of the associated form item. In static
lists, using the semicolon as the value of an entry may cause issues with parsing the
list.
The following is an example of a static list. Commas separate the list items. Each
list item is composed of a display value and a return value, with a semicolon separating
those two values:
STATIC:C;1,A;2,D;3,B;4,
When you display the values in this list, you see only the display values. Because
the list is type STATIC , the values are displayed in alphabetical order:
A
B
C
D
Next is an example of a STATIC2 list. Notice that the entries are specified in the
same order as before:
STATIC2:C;1,A;2,D;3,B;4,
However, this time the values are displayed in their order of definition. They are not
sorted alphabetically:
