If I'm understanding your request, you want a denormalised list in a field - in which case, just use a Text field or a Varchar field. You can put anything you want into those fields, so it can easily contain a comma separated list. If you want to hold 2 lists for 2 different fields, then store 2 different lists in 2 fields - there is no reason to hold them in one field There are problems with denormalised lists, but for small amounts of data they are fine - I would suggest moving to normalising your relationships though, it makes the system a lot more expandable.
