Hey guys, so I am reletively new to this service and I am truly a fan of all the powerful features, but I'm having trouble with something I would have considered fairly simple. I have table with a unique field "Name" and another field "%_Lost". I want to create a form that allows the user to go to the form, select from the dropdown any of the values from the "Name" field and then enter a % Lost in a text field and have that submission overwrite the previous value.
Now I know this sounds terribly unsecure and like a potential nightmare for data integrity but the app is so small and simple that those issues are not important. Anyone know how I can make this work? I have read documentation on Update forms but I am not using any record authentication and would like to keep this down to one Datapage as I only have 3 available to deploy.
