Hi,

Just starting with FM and found problem with pop-up menu. I would like pop-up menu to have option to insert "Others" and also include that in the list next time user click on this field. I know there is a "Edit" option for pop-up menu but I don't want users to be able to edit entries, just add new ones to the list.

FM Pro 11

Thanks,

In that case I would recommend creating a ValuesList Table and in there create a record for each value include an "Other..." option in that perhaps add a serial number so you can order the items in the list too, use a Cartesian relationship so that the items can be sorted.

here is just one sample using script trigger.

Thanks Ocean,

Thanks for looking into it. It works great with one small exception. After adding new entry I would like that value to become value for record. I don't think I described my problem good enough in previous post.

Tomorrow I will try to figure it out how you done this list and connections. Once again thanks for help!

my bad - just rotate the goto layout and set field at the end of the script. - you have to goto original layout before you set the field.

Ok Done!

After swapping last two lines it is all working great.

Do you know why option from the topic does not exist in the Inspector with Control style set to pop-up menu and Allow entry of other values ticked? Im reading some articles and apparently there should be one there?

P.S. It looks like there is no other way but to learn Scripts

Thanks for your help and finding way around!
