Add to Value List with a Script?

[jasonwood]

Is it possible to use a script to add a value to a value list?

I do not want to have a separate database file for the values, and it is multiuser so I can't use a global field for the values (because it will change).

I've done it using a separate file but not within the same file. You could check the "Include Edit" box when formatting the field to a Value List and not have to use a script.

You cannot use a global field anyway -- it's not stored.

Have you considered defining the value list to be based on a field value? As people enter new values they appear in the list automatically.

Since this morning I decided to just give in and use two databases. There was some other functionality that I wanted from the second db.

Good to know I wasn't missing anything though!
