Schoolwires Centricity2 Forms & Surveys Form Item Types and Examples Item Type Example or Requirements Random Answers? Point Values? Database Drop-down Here are the requirements: To use this question type, all that is required is that the user enters a valid SQL statement and the database connection string. When using this question type, be extremely careful to ensure that the SQL entered will return results, and that the database connection information is valid. If either of these is incorrect, no data will be displayed. The SQL statement must contain two columns called ItemValue and ItemDisplay. These two columns are used, respectively, as the value and the display text for each entry in the dropdown list. The correct way to make sure that your SQL contains columns with these two names is to use the "As" keyword in your SQL, as shown in the following example: SELECT state_code As ItemValue, state_name as ItemDisplay FROM tblstate ORDER BY state_name If you wish to use the same column for both the value and text, simply select that column twice in your SQL statement, and alias it using the "As" keyword, as follows: SELECT state_code As ItemValue, state_code as ItemDisplay FROM tblstate ORDER BY state_name The database connection string can be any valid DSN-less connection, or any valid DSN.
