As to lists of values and lists in a file, the program allows you to use its special "use sequential values from the list" mode when data will be taken from the list not randomly, but sequentially in a loop.
Also, the program can interpret the value of the list as a pattern. The "Use list items as a pattern" checkbox can be used to enable this mode. This option supports for "list", list "from file", "Value Library" and "From Table" fill methods.
