Data best suited for
|
Use dynamic prompts when working with unique menu values for which the data related to each value is different and informative
enough by itself. An example of a dynamic prompt is when the following values are included in the prompt: 2005, 2006, 2007,
2008, 2009, 2010. Whenever the user selects one of these years, another indicator dynamically changes based on the selection
of the year.
