ABSTRACT:
The invention is carried out in the following environment. The computer system has at least a visual operator interface, an operating system for operating applications within the computer system, and memory for storing at least part, preferably all, of an application. The present invention provides a method, apparatus, and application for constructing in a graphical user interface a list of values from pre-defined and user-defined values. Also disclosed is a means for adding, modifying, and deleting values. Additionally disclosed is a means for copying selected values from one entry to another entry in the list of values.
