Dwindling Value List: "Almost Working" and in need of troubleshooting.

$

Hi all,

I have given this the old "college-try" and worked until I have exhausted all variations to get it to work. I would not post this here unless I exhausted my search for a solution.

I have attached a file that "should" open up to the "Paper Thickness" layout. I have reworked the file to try and explain with note labels what you are seeing and the troubles I am having. To me, it is bizarre. It kinda works and gives a weird unexpected result when creating a "first" record in the table. It is behaving as if there is no "internal" index of the "second field" display configuration on the Dwindling Value List I created - but only for the first record.

In addition, I can not create a first record using the Dwindling Value List - I have to use a normal Value List to get the first record created.

I believe it is very close to being solved, and once hopefully solved, I can add this technique to my novice toolbelt. I have a few layouts that can certainly use the "Dwindling Value List" benefit.

Any help is appreciated.
