It should work fine. But if you have the DVL working this you should not need this.

The demo was using a **clone** not a real DVL. Just something that looks like a DVL.

When using a DVL, you don’t need this **clone block** and the **loop block**.

You **either** use the normal DVL the same way you used to use it **or** use this trick similar to DVL) but not both together.

You can **save the screen** then in the other project add new screen from `Saved Screens`.

I can use it. I have seen people spelling my name in different forms such as monir, mounir, munir but I spell it muneer. Anyway, as long as I understand that I am being called, I don’t mind how it is spelled.

You are actually **cloning** a row in the screen. So every time you open the screen, the cloning starts and adds to the existing rows.

You can easily check that there is only **one row** before you start cloning.

So, if there is more than **one row** then you already filled the list and you do not need to fill it again.
