Hi All,
Is there a way to build a custom control and then populate it with the contents of custom object? Then, is it possible to utilize this custom control in the Answer workspace? Lastly, how do I store the selected value with that Answer.
To summarize what i am trying to accomplish another way ..... our business would like to keep a listing of SMEs for each answer (answers may have one optional SME). While SMEs are contact, but not all contacts are SMEs. They truthfully only want to be able to associate one SME per answer (and they really only want to store the SME name (whether it is actually related to Contacts or not)). In an idea world, I would simply add a custom field SME_IND to Contacts and then populate the dropdown list on answers with any contacts that are SMEs. Upon selection, the c.id would be stored as an FK in Answer (or, even better in a relator SME_TABLE(SME_ID, a.id, c.id) if they wanted to pursue allowing multiple SMEs per answer). Anyways, I think you can see what I am trying to accomplish. Any help or shove in the right direction would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
