<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3153323" xml-lang="en-US">With the combination fields, you can either save the value of a field in a database or display this value in a form.</paragraph>
</section>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3155150" xml-lang="en-US">The user values entered in the combination field or selected in the list can be saved in the database table that is accessed in the form. Note that the saving of values in another table is not possible. If the values are not to be saved in a database, they will be saved only in the form. This is especially helpful in HTML forms, where the user's entered or selected values are to be assigned to a server.</paragraph>
