[sunny_plone]

hi,
sorry for late reply.
i want to create a address book which has fields like name, phno, email id
etc which are keys.... and i want each key to hav multiple values.... as
many users will enter their names. so name key will contain many values. i
am not able to store the values entered through command line. i am able to
store 1st value, but wen sec value is entered first one is erased.
i hope i cleard ur doubts....
