Can you create a Multiple Choice field to a form?

Hi SNC,

Is there a way to add a field which is multiple choice to a standard form (ex: change form)?

The field types OOTB do not offer this. Variables do, but I can't think of a way to add a variable to personalize the form.

Anyone done this?

As far as I can guess LIST is exactly what you need. Yes you wil have to create multiple check boxes which is not a viable option.

This is from wiki:

List	Reference field that accepts multiple references rather than just one

List type field is the only option i guess...

Maybe you can use an annotation and multiple booleans? Or create another table with your choices and have a reference slush bucket?

You both guys are right in a way I guess. I was thinking of creating a custom table and then having a field of type List, which references this custom table. The problem was that it appeared like a watchlist (with the padlock) and once you open it it dispayed the sys ids of my choices for some reason. I will try harder I guess, perhaps I did something wrong.

Dimitar - when you made your table, did you remember to mark one of the fields with Display=true? That would at least give something other than the sys_id to use as the default display value for each row.
