SYMPTOM(s):
The ADD-LAST() method appears not to work as expected with LIST-ITEM-PAIRS COMBO-BOX widget.
Executing the statement
Combo-Box-1:ADD-LAST('James, Jr' , 'Smith') NO-ERROR.
does not append the pair to the LIST-ITEM-PAIRS of the COMBO-BOX.
CAUSE:
The comma ',' character is the default LIST-ITEM-PAIRS DELIMITER. Hence it can not be contained in a character list element unless the DELIMITER is changed to some other character.
FIX:
Change the COMBO-BOX DELIMITER attribute to some other character:
Combo-Box-1:DELIMITER = CHR(2).
Combo-Box-1:ADD-LAST('James, Jr' , 'Smith') NO-ERROR.
