parameterizable, context-independent MVL Value lists are an important tool in FileMaker development because they can store data from any other table in a current table without being related to it. Anyone who has worked with these value lists knows that each value list has to be created separately and is therefore not transferable and offers little comfort and presentation options.Here are some advantages over a \u201cnormal\u201d value list: The number of displayed rows can be set using parameters. You can scroll forwards and backwards in blocks. When an element is selected, the corresponding Sys_ID or UUID of the source table is also output for further use. 2 fields from the source table can be displayed next to each other. The display can be filtered. This makes WOI-MVL-DYN suitable for large databases. Thanks to the add-on format, no installation is necessary. Only a few parameters need to be entered so that the MVL-DYN can be assigned to the WOI-MVL-DYN with the individual names of the target layout and the target table.
