Oracle Forms – Remove List Element from List Item

Posted on May 3, 2010 in Technical Tips | 2 comments

This one is a little wily, so John suggested we post it. Removing a label/value from a dropdown should be super-simple. In Oracle Forms, however, you ought to know the shortcut key:

CTRL + SHIFT + ,

Why that combination? Well, it might look strange in writing, but when you type it, you will notice that “SHIFT + ,” makes a less-than symbol “<". I won't go as far as to say this is completely intuitive, but I hope this helps someone.
