I am using Tracefields for programs, for operators to input 3 bits of information before every program. Work order #, Serial #, and Operator name.
For the Operator Name section, I am wanting to use a drop down menu, with a list of names to select, so that the user will have to select their name instead of having them type it.
What i'm not sure about though, is if I create this list, and use it on every program we use, how can I make this a sort of "universal" list? So as we get new employees and new operators, I can add their name into the list and it will update for all of our programs.
I'm still a bit new to using expressions and VBS, and have not been able to come up with a way to do this.
maybe, don't use operator's names, just numbers from 1 to .., make drop down list of numbers, maintain only table with linked numbers to operators, how many operators ?

Appreciate the idea, but I think that would just make things more complicated. The operator name will show up in the report header, for a clear indication of who the part was ran by. currently there are 8 names of operators in the list.
