Get a list of cities from the Internet ("list of cities" in Google might be a good start) and push it into a combo box or a ring by creating a property node for the control and using the Strings[] property.

If you want to do this by country, you can create a text file for each country, use the list of files to populate the country list, then read the selected file and use that to populate the city list.

If you can't find a simple list online, you can write code which will extract the list. What you basically do is use Datasocket Read and append "[text]" to the end of the URL to get the data as a string. You can then parse the HTML to get the relevant links and names. The exact code will depend on the page in which the information is found.

Of course, you could also consider not including the feature.
