Dropdown that links to External Data Source

We use many forms that are designed with LiveCycle Designer.....most of them have a drop down field for employee names. When employees are hired and leave I have to manually update each drop down!!!! Is there a way to link those dropdowns to an external source so I only have to update that list?

Thanks!

Yes, Employee data can be prepopulated from Relational Database (Such as Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, MySQL), xml file, or web services.

Go through the LC Designer documentation on how to create various data connectivity.
