Hi Guys, I have a choice component , I am writing the values selected to user specific row in table1: I want a single value column to pick this item Issue: Its writing randomly in some row in the table. I know we can make use of set value from user table and make this work. **But how can I make it work when I am writing choice component value to a tables user specific column?** Thank you in advance for helping. Regards, Dilip ---

If it were me I’d attach the screen to a one row table. Everything is single value first from a one row table 😉 You might need a relation/ query from the user profile to the row in table 1 ---

Are you writing to the users table or some other table that has a row assigned to the user? ---

Hi Robert, Thank you for replying. I am writing to some other table having user assigned column. Regards, Dilip ---

K. Then yes, you’ll need to create a single-row query to the table (filter by user) and then point the choice component to the query. ---
