Getting a List of Tables onto a Combo Box

Luann_Dias · May 2022

How would I go about getting a list of all Open Insight tables? I'm looking to populate a combo box with a list of tables and then have another combo box with a list of dictionaries from whatever table that gets selected from the first combo box. I know how to populate a combo box, just wondering if there's an existing OI function I could use to do this. Would the Repository function be the right choice? If so what would be the right message to use in the first parameter?

Thank you!

The easiest way is to get the data from the @TABLES system global variable. Look at @TABLES(0).
