# List Fields

To initially create a List, type the list values one per line as follows:

&#x20;

**Adding List Values**

To modify a list field, click the Edit icon:

New list values can be added by typing them one per line:

<figure><img src="/files/wuAHhw6sO02T32rFxTdm" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Modifying List Values**

List values can be changed by editing the value in the text box. When a value is changed, the colour will also change to provide a visual cue:

<figure><img src="/files/IipQ8BOyyJZv42nmZvNL" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The colour will revert to black once the changed is saved:

**Archiving List Values**

Suppose the "Corporate" Department is no longer applicable. To reflect this in Aerofiler, the "Archive" function could be used on the "Corporate" Department:

<figure><img src="/files/deErnriMYlN7zebUKAjH" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The effect of this would be that "Corporate" could no longer be selected as a value. However, existing documents with a Department of "Corporate" would still display that value, to accurately reflect the historical record.

{% hint style="info" %}
If a value such as "Corporate" is archived, then "Corporate" cannot be used for new values because this would result in conflicting naming.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
