Net.Data

Hi Don,

Yes you can populate a drop-down box in Net.Data using SQL. Unfortunately, 
It's been a couple years since I used Net.Data and I don't have any 
examples here at this workplace.  You basically run the SQL statement and 
then insert the data like this:

<select>
  <option value="$(field_name)">$(field_name)</option>
</select>

There's some manuals at 
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/netdata/docs/index.html 
that you might find useful.

Good Morning,
Don't know if this is the best place to ask this question? I was wondering 
if in net.data it is possible to "load up" a drop down list by reading a 
System i database via SQL? Say you had all of the state names in a file, 
and the user had to use a drop down list to select their state. Could that 
drop down list have been populated with the SQL against the database?
