-The Mystic Help Files are being re-written ​for the release of **Mystic v1.5, during the summer of 2021**.+The [[PergamonMystic:​linkedhelp:​manage_lookup_popup|Manage Lookup Popup]] is usually used to search ​for and create or attach a single value to control such as a Dynamic Drop-Down or a Multi-Value Control.
  
-For nowplease ​use the Pergamon Help files by clicking the **Pergamon Wiki** Icon at the top of this page, or **Pergamon Wiki Home** below.+Occasionally howeverit is far more convenient to manage all of the currently attached values in one go - for that, we can use the **Lookup Content dialog**.

 +==== Attaching and Removing words and Phrases =====
 +
 +In order to attach or remove words and phrases from the content, select one or more items from one of the lists and the use the **[<]** or **[>]** buttons to move those selections to the other list.
 +
 +  * The **left list** shows **available** values but which are **not** current attached to the content.
 +  * The **right list** shows values that **are currently attached** to the content.
 +
 +An alternate method is to double-click the item required. When double-clicked,​ the selected item will move to the opposite list to that where it is currently located.
 +
 +----
 +==== Searching for new Words and Phrases ====
 +
 +In order to search for a new word or phrase to attach, enter a search criteria in the text box. Words or phrases that match the criteria are displayed in the left hand list, where suitable values can be transferred to the attached list.

 +==== Creating a new Word or Phrase ====
 +
 +If the text entered in the Criteria text field does not exist, it can be created and automatically attached to the **Attached** list by simply clicking the **[Create]** button.
 +
 +----
 +==== Changing a Qualifier ====
 +
 +Values moved into the **Attached** list are initially attached using the default qualifier (if one exists for that value type).
 +
 +To change the qualifier, select the value required with a **right-click** of the mouse to display the list of available qualifiers. Select the qualifier required from the list,
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Saving Changes ====
 +
 +Once all of the changes have been made to the Attached list, click **[Save]** to save the changes back into the source control or record. All changes are made at once.
 +
 +Remember however, that saving the changes from here will usually only make the changes in the source record as it appears **on screen** - to ensure that the changes are permanent, make sure to **also save the changes in the source record**.
