Dear gurus and experts. In a script I select in list A (the left one in the screen shot). This fills list B. If I then change the selection A, list B is not built afresh but amended by the new items. https://daube.ch/zz_tests/FMbuildTB-err1.png Snippet of UI Gui Tab, 2 ; From existing TLB ----------...

Re: List selection by double click - How? Topic is solved
Thank you, Garry and Mikey
I will test tomorrow. However, i thought that the single = sign is an assignment, not a compare operator:

Re: How to read PDF meta data
Thank You very much, mikeyww!
I have found this PDF Tool Kit, installed it, and your script provides the requested information.
For the final application i will need to include the pdftk.exe in my distribution, because the user of my script/app will not have it.
