Question : How to create combo box filters based on fields in the same table?

Hello,

I have a table that has two fields with a dependency.  Specificially, the results of field one should limit the list of items for selection in field two.  I am able to create the combo box and related list, but am unable to properly filter the results based on field one.  Interestingly, when I close and then open the table, the combo box will recognize the value in field one and apply the filter.

Essentially:

Table1.Field2 combo box based on the value in Table1.FieldOne.

Thanks!

If I am understanding your question: (you want cascading comboboxes in a form), then this is difficult to do in a Table.

Is using a Single View form an option?

Here is a great tutorial:
