When I animate a box so that upon clicking it opens up a Data Entry box, I noticed that it has an option for "Write Requires Confirmation" for a Numeric Entry, but not for a Multi-Item Select.
I'm trying to provide Named Set selection for the operator, but would also like it to require write confirmation. Anyone know how to do this?
Can you post a picture of your object(s) and logic?
"Opens a Data Entry box" can be done many different ways and it would be good to know how your exact configuration is being done to suggest a way to add the confirmation you would like.
In reply to Matt Stoner:
Based on use of the DeltaV Data Entry function (Animations/Command/Click/DeltaV Data Entry), it appears that the Multi-Item Select function does not pass the Confirmation property to the final form. (It is the same form as the Numeric Entry, though).
What type of confirmation do you need? Does it need to be Esignature or just "Are you Sure?"

Hi Youssef,
I'm looking for something more general-- just "Are you sure?" or something like that. If the Operator selects the wrong named set value, it would shut our plant down, and the whole point of my allowing them to choose is to prevent that.
Thanks

Without taking apart the hidden code behind the data entry wizard, you will have to invoke the show dialog, confirmation, and write routines independently. The data entry wizard code combines the show dialog and write routines in a package that does not afford you the ability to inject the confirmation in-between.
You can create your own form an control everything, but then you lose the COTs functionality of the the system. I will have to think about this one longer.
