Add inline data option for dropdown when prompting user for more information

[juliehovet]

The inline data option is convenient for simple dropdown functions in the form widget. Could something similar be added when prompting user for more information when calling a RPG program?

We will add this to our feature request list. In the meantime, if you don't have a table that has the values you need in the dropdown, you can create a data source with the inline data.

In case you didn't know, or for others reading this forum post, you can create a data source that has the value and display values; then just link to your data source. Example below:

SELECT
  valuecol,
  displaycol
FROM
  TABLE(
    VALUES
      ('A', 'Active'),
      ('D', 'Disabled'),
      ('H', 'Held')
  ) AS statusdata (valuecol, displaycol)

Thank you for this!
