Newbies es.p Posted December 16, 2008 Newbies Share Posted December 16, 2008 Can you have a pull-down menu in a repeating field? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitch Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Welcome to FM Forums. Yes you can. Repeating fields are generally to be avoided, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies es.p Posted December 16, 2008 Author Newbies Share Posted December 16, 2008 What's the best way to set this up? We have a database of students in a special program. I have set up a layout with the student ID, name, services (the value list in repeating field) the program staff members (repeating field), and contact time (another repeating field). I need something for people who are even less experienced with the program than I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean West Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 As Fitch said repeating fields for user data should be avoided if you intend to report (sub summary) on it at a future date. You would do yourself great justice to examine a relational model using a portal for the data fields: services, program staff members, contact time, assigning them a value lists as needed. oh and welcome to the forums!
