Question

In VS LightSwitch, queries can have parameters. When creating a screen, the query parameters are shown on the screen. A choice list can be defined, in which case the field appears as a drop-down-list on the screen.

Instead of defining a static choice list, how can I read the choice list from a table?

No, a choice list is a static list of data. If you want a dynamic list of data, you should create a table and add a relationship to it from wherever you need it. That will allow you to dynamically filter it through queries, for example.
