Hi All,
I have a requirement in which some of the text fields are
customizable by the super admin for eg: Dropdown options, Chek box
options, Can any one tell me how best we can do the table design

Thanks in Advance

Hi

It sounds like you are customizing the user interface, in which case it
sounds like you need to query a configuration table for the items available.
As far as drop downs if the values are fixed then a flag saying whether it is
available or not would be one solution, although if they are manually entered
or changable a table of configured values would probably be the better
option. You can either keep the shipped values in a configuration (XML) file
or possibly their own set of tables if you expect this to be changed
frequently.
