Dynamic Record Insert Field Selection

Problem: I would like to allow a user to select which field (column) to update
within a given record. I was thinking about creating a unique record insert
for each field within the record using a toggle and conditional region.
However, Dreamweaver only allows one record insert server behavior on a page.
My plan calls for 10.

Is there a way to dynamically determine which field (column) is updated by the
insert record server behavior (maybe a toggle that changes the field selection
within a single record insert server behavior).

Thx,
Mark

Depending upon the server model used I would suggest that you look at hand
coding the insert statement and not let DW write it for you. That way you
could dynamically write the actual statement based on what you need to pass.
If you are working in ASP has a look at www.asp101.com for some sample
insert code.
