Record is a text field which automatically generates a list of names (or
rather, adding a name to the list of names if the user is a new user).And
this list is displayed on the opening screen. I intend to ask the user to
choose his name from the list provided. If it is not there, the user types
his name in.
However, is it better to call upon an external text file instead of an
internal field?
By the way , do you know of some generic code I may learn from?
