Greets, all:
I'm having a royal brain hernia trying to figure out how to create a conditional value list between two tables where there are multiple key fields. (Please refer to the attached.)
In the JOB table there is a field, JOB::CAD_Type, which stores a handful of custom values for a value list: COMM, DIST, PROV, ST, and TERR. In the screen capture, I chose ST (for State) as a value for JOB::CAD_Type. To the right of it, under the pop-up value list, is JOB::CAD_Abbreviated--it gets its values from another table (VALUE_LIST) where you can see VALUE_LIST::Cad_Type (ST), VALUE_LIST::Country_Abbreviated (US). VALUE_LIST is a table dedicated to storing values that are used throughout the database/solution. (VALUE_LIST::Country_Abbreviated is underneath the pop-up value list.)
What I want to do is filter the pop-up value list so that it only shoes pertinent Values per JOB table's CAD_Type and Country_Abbreviated fields. So, with ST in JOB::CAD_Type field and US in JOB::Country_Abbreviated, I only want the U.S.'s fifty states to appear in the pop-up value list.
Another example would be if the JOB::CAD_Type was PROV and the JOB::Country_Abbreviated was CA, only Canada's provinces would appear in the value list.
So far, I "get" that that Cad_Type and Country_Abbreviated will have to be key fields in both tables, but that's where I'm stuck. If you can point to, or upload, a solution I can parrot in mine it would be greatly appreciated!
TIA for your help.
