Just thought I would share a pretty cool way to do this in CF8:

http://demo.thinksys.com/cf8/cfwindow/addContacts.cfm

It is dummy data so feel free to play with it.

> I have a general question about how people are handling new records to 
> select boxes. I mean if you have a form with a select box that 
> displays values from a database but when the user is filling out the 
> form they need to add a new record to that list. 
> 
> --Example--
> Description: <textbox>
> Data: <datapicker>
> Company: <cfselect>
> Details: <textbox>
> 
> On this example the user wants to add a new company that is not in the 
> list. They need to be able add a new company. They will need to be 
> able to add the name and all data (like address and phone) that goes 
> with company.
> 
> I don't have any issues handling the insert part of this. I am just 
> not sure the best way to handle the interface.
> 
> I have tried lots different ways to do this but I have never really 
> figured out a good way to handle it.
> 
> Anyone out there have any pointers for me about this.
> 
> Thanks in advance.
