Use of edtElem to present a list for a MEMIDENT source

You can use mpi_edtElem.edtCode to populate a list of member identification number issuers.

The following example shows the use of mpi_edtElem.edtCode to populate a drop-down list for a MemIdent IdIssuer.

section.LICID.attrcode=LICID
section.LICID.1.method=setIdNumber
section.LICID.1.label=State Lic
section.LICID.1.class=
section.LICID.1.value=
section.LICID.1.size=20
section.LICID.1.celldelim= 
section.LICID.1.hint= Issuer:
section.LICID.2.method=setIdIssuer
section.LICID.2.label= Issuer:
section.LICID.2.class=
section.LICID.2.value=
section.LICID.2.size=10
section.LICID.2.dropdown=STATE

Typically the iIdIssuer is completed from a .dropdown from the mpi_srchead table, but presenting everything in mpi_srchead for the member type number (memTypeno) might list irrelevant entries. To present a refined list, you can use the mpi_edtelem table. For this configuration to work correctly, the mpi_edtElem.elemval must match the mpi_srcHead.srcCode you want to use for this MemIdent. Configuring the mpi_segattr.edtcode field is not required.
