Append a value to a column

[Darren_Murphy]

@vijay

I create a column Emails which is a basic column of Email type.

No, it should be a text column.

@vijay

I create another column New Email to which when a job seeker clicks the Apply button, it will set the column New Email with the job seeker’s email address.

I would use a User Specific Column for this.

@vijay

Then, I create a template column First Template which is A, where A is New Email.
Then, I create another template column Second Template which is “B, C” , where B is “Emails” and C is “New Email”.

Yes, that’s correct.

@vijay

Now, my question how would Emails column get updated? It is basic column, and if nothing is written to it, it will remain empty. Which column do I use the “If then else” column mentioned in the last point?

When the user submits, you write the value of the if-then-else column into your emails column.

If you want something to study, make a copy of the below app, and look at the Announcements table and screen.
