Does this make each list item essentially it's own page?

Hello,
You could check this page about database lists [1].
The steps could be: - create a specific class, for objects that will hold possible values for your list (manually, or with app within minutes). You don't much care about the livetable, you mainly need a form for users to create new values. You can either define only one field in this Class (the values to show in the list), or 2 fields (one for the key, one for the value). Remember the name of the class and fields created. - in the Database List field you want to populate, apply [1], and enter the name of the class you created above, and the field(s) defining the values (and the keys if needed).
The Hibernate Query field is here if you want to do more advanced selections of the keys/values. You can even define a "tree" structure for the values to show in the list, but that's another topic ! ;-)
Note that if you don't need strict validation of user inputs, and to propose a predefined list of values, you could also just use the "suggest" feature in your field (and make it a simple string field instead of db list).
Hope this helps, Jeremie

Now that I read my post, it dawns on me that I don't really need to use "LiveTables" if that's too much of a hassle, populating the Database List based on a table in the backend DB would work just as well, has anyone done this, or have any pointers?
Ultimately, I just need to devise a strategy to allow my user community to add/delete and edit the values that show up in my list without cracking into code or the class editor. And I don't want them to call me either :)

Hello again all,
I’m trying not to ask every little question here, but I’m pretty well stuck. I’ve created an App Within Minutes app and added a “Database List” but I’m not sure how to populate the list. I’ve read tons (mostly of which I don’t understand) about HQL and LiveTable, but since I’m so new I can’t really figure out how to get this going. I’d like to have a “LiveTable” (form) somewhere that my users enter and maintain data which then populates the “Database List” on my app. I’ve Googled a bunch but I can’t seem to find a good example of this. In my mind I want to do the following:
1. Create a LiveTable somewhere 2. Link the Database List to the LiveTable I created.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
