HI all, I'm back again. In my app, my main screen is a list box. From here if I select option one it opens a form and when I close the form I go back to my listbox -- perfect. Now if you select option 2 it opens a listbox which I can then further select items. However I don't know how to get back to my original screen. Should I maybe be going from main screen to a form...

Couldn't you use appuifw.app.body to set the application's screen back to the main screen? So if you have listbox1 as the main screen, you go to listbox2 and then set appuifw.app.body=listbox1 to be taken back to the first lisbox.

that sounds exactly what I am needing how do that? Is that reconfiguring the app.body soft keys? thanks Chris

Yes, you could assign a function to the left softkey that takes you back, for example. Code: #Define the function to show the first lisbox def back(): appuifw.app.body=listbox1 #Assign the function to the left softkey appuifw.app.exit_key_handler=back

HI there, Ok thats cool. However when I move back to the first list box after pressing back, will the back button change to my previous exit button? thanks Chris
