Custom Fields Questions for Profiles

Hi SI Team

I have a profiling system e.g. here:

http://www.finalbug.net/bruce-the-yak

Members can enter custom info using a Multi List Form e.g. in the category for video:

Video Form/Section

Avid
Color
DVD Studio Pro
Encore
Final Cut Pro Classic
Final Cut Pro X
Final Cut Server
Lightworks
Premiere
Resolve
Smoke


Question 01

As of now I am using a MultiList form to get people to input their “tools”
What if I want to change the input method e.g. in the category for video:
I want to use a “Checkboxes” input form instead of a “MultiList” form!

Will I lose all inputed data so far or is it possible to retain this data after changing the form/input method?

Question 02

I want to move some of the tools off into another form/section.

e.g.

Take:

Color
Resolve

from here:

Video Form/Section

Avid
Color
DVD Studio Pro
Encore
Final Cut Pro Classic
Final Cut Pro X
Final Cut Server
Lightworks
Premiere
Resolve
Smoke



And put them in a new section called:

Colour Form/Section

Color
Resolve

If I were to do this would any one who had entered “Color” in the “Video” section now turn up in the “Colour” section?

I hope this makes sense?

thanks in advance

Paul
