This will probably be the last topic that i post.
I have a question regarding a selection limit from a list of values. The table where my IDs (unit_codes) come from has another column called 'points'. each ID has its own number of points.
Is there a way to put a selection limit on the display field that points will be placed on?
FOR EXAMPLE: a course block has a selection limit of 70 points, A person named someguy selects :
music = 20 points
maths = 20 points
mathsXTRA = 40 points
**ALERT!!! - U can ONLY select 70 points worth of units**

I don't think that LoV is capable of doing that, but you might create a summary item (create an ordinary text item; open its Property Palette window. Interesting stuff is under "Calculation"). If you are doing it for the first time, I'd suggest you to open Forms Online Help and read about "summary items" (because it might be tricky to correctly set it up).
