Database Editor Fields

[Guest]

I'm using FP2002, and have created a Database Editor to modify existing
records in an access db. The edit page of the editor uses all free-form text
fields for modifying existing data, even if it was submitted via drop down
box forms.
Is there a way to use drop down boxes in the db editor as you would in a
standard form to modify data?

Yes, but you need a table (or query) to get the list of options for the dropdown

Thanks. Is there a website that explains the process?
