Hi, I have a problem I need help with. I will attempt to explain what I am
trying to do. I have created a drop down box with several customer's names to choose from. Each customer has different "unit" numbers to choose from. What I am wanting to do is when I select a customer, I want the next drop down list to show only that customer's "units". Basically, I want two drop down lists beside each other. When I select a customer, then that customer's units are shown. When I select a different customer in the first box, then the unit numbers change to the customer they are assigned to. As I stated before, I know how to make a the drop box listing the customers, so I do not need help making the drop boxes. Thank you in advance for your help! |

Now, another problem. Once my customer, then unit are selected, is there a
function that automatically fills in the information for that particular unit? "Varney" wrote: Hi, I have a problem I need help with. I will attempt to explain what I am trying to do.
