Here is an sample of a function that calls a dialog containing a single field, called Language and a hidden fields called Languages:

Function SelectLanguage() As String

Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace

Dim session As New NotesSession

Dim db As NotesDatabase

Dim dlgdoc As NotesDocument

Dim languages(3) as string



Set db = session.CurrentDatabase

Set dlgdoc = New NotesDocument(db)

languages(0) = "EN"

languages(1) = "DU"

languages(2) = "FR"

languages(3) = "GE"

dlgdoc.languages = languages

dlgdoc.Language = "-"

If ws.DialogBox("SelectLanguage", True, True, False, False, False, False, "What language?", dlgdoc) Then

	If dlgdoc.Language(0) <> "" Then

		SelectLanguage = dlgdoc.Language(0)

	Else

		Messagebox "You did not select a language", 16, "Error"

		SelectLanguage = ""

	End If

Else

	SelectLanguage = ""

End If

End Function

Set the field Language on the dialog to be “use formula for choices” and as value Languages (the name of the selection field).
