User Selected Drop Down List

Hi there,

I would like some assistance with the drop down list I have created.

Basically what I want to be able to do is (as an example) is to have the user select a choice from the drop down list, and then this record is then stored and updated in their file.

Then return to the layout with that updated choice.

This would also - upon the user coming back into the file - restore their preferences / settings that have been stored for them.

Yet when I am doing this - it is changing it for all records.

I have tried to be explicit by making it change based on searching for the record afterwards so that it only updates that 1 record.

Am I missing something? I have attached the file I am working with to recreate the idea.

The layout is Tree and the script trigger fires off the script Update Color.

You are using A Global Variable COLOR;

Globals are 1 value for all records.

Change to non global.
