 * I have searched the forum but cant find any related information
    I would like
   the user to be able to select from a custom field dropdown a list of data that
   comes from another table in the DB to the golf course he belongs. Currently I
   have a list of 400 golf courses and the list is growing on a daily basis. This
   makes it very difficult to keep adding a new course to the choices field in the
   dropdown field.
 * Any suggestion please

 * Thank you for writing to us.
 * Currently, ProfileGrid does not allow addition of the drop down field from external
   tables.
