Hi,
Am new to dataface. Think it looks great!!

A quick question.

I have the a table :-

scorers:
with fields....
scorer_id, player_id, match_id, goals_scored

The field, player_id references another table (players), where the details of the player (eg. name) are held.
The field match_id references another table, (matches), where the details of a match (eg. match date) are held.

Can you set up the List tab for the scorers table, to show not the player_id but the player_name from the players table.
And....
show the match_date from the matches table, and not the match_id ??????

Similarly can the same be done in the Details tab ?

Its probably a simple question, but am new to dataface, and still learning.

Thanks.

Yes. Have a look at the documentation on value lists (http://framework.weblite.ca/documentation/tutorial/getting_started/valuelists).
