Prompt Table with No Edit
Prompt Table with No Edit allows users to add new values to the underlying prompt table directly. With Prompt Table with Edit enabled, users can only select from existing values and cannot add new ones. Translate Table Edit and Yes/No Edit have different purposes.
A 'Prompt Table with No Edit' associates a field with a list of valid-looking values for lookup/prompting purposes but does not enforce that the entered value must already exist in that table — so a user can type in a brand-new value, which then gets written into the underlying table. A full 'Prompt Table Edit' (with edit), by contrast, rejects any value not already present, and Translate/Yes-No edits are fixed value sets that aren't backed by an updatable table at all.
