Either should work:

LMPopulate ,the long id of fld "<YourListName>" -- Notice nothing is in
front of the comma

And...

Populating with your space / tab ... / cr (single line). 

Just tested both. Worked fine. No errors. Try doing it from a button instead
of the message box.

Also, understand the widget is a just a list field and the header is a
group, so for example, if you want to make it disappear, you can set the
visible of them.

Here you can use "empty" ;-)

LMSetHilitedLines "",the long id of fld "<YourListName>"
