If Users have only one document then I presume it is stored via the User table. If so you need a list of users and then you can reference the file/pdf field. If users can have many documents then you must have a table of documents. In which case you need a list of documents or list of users and a second screen or sublist showing documents. In short, you don’t have the document field available. Fix that and you are on the right track. ---
