DropDownList for Column?

  • Hi I was wondering if it is possible to desginate a dropdownlist for a column

    When a user goes into the database and opens a table to edit/add values, can you make a column be a dropdownlist, so that only a specific set of values are allowed to be entered?

    You can do that at the application level. However, users should not be editing data directly in the database from SSMS such as explained here.

    Have them access the database through the app tier.
