Dynamic lists are created using the Rational ClearQuest Client instead of using Rational® ClearQuest® Designer. As a result, the contents of the choice list can be modified without the need to upgrade the corresponding schema or databases.
If the Recalculate Choice List check box is checked, Rational ClearQuest updates the contents of the choice list as needed while the form containing the corresponding field is displayed. If this check box is not checked, Rational ClearQuest initializes the choice list when the form is first displayed and then does no further updates.
If the Limit to List check box is checked, users are restricted from entering values that are not part of the defined choice list. If you check the Limit to List check box, you should use either a list box or a drop-down list box (as opposed to a combo box) to display the field.
