Drop Field Type on NWF
« on: June 26, 2020, 03:13:17 AM »
Hi Guys,

If I am using a Drop Field type on a NWF,

how do I link a related table to the dropped records?

I tried the 'Link Table' option, but doesn't seem to work,

Perhaps I am doing something wrong ... any help will be appreciated ;-)

Hi Rupert,

We need more context on what you are trying to do, and your data structure.
What does
"how do I link a related table to the dropped records?"
mean?

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

I have a drop list showing items linked to a specific supplier, from Table 1.
This drop list is filtered by the supplier selected. (suppliers in table 2)

I have an item master file, table 3, which contains the item list with descriptions, etc.

I would like a lookup, (related table option) from my drop list to display the item description from table 3, while listing items from table 1 for the selected supplier.

Hi Rupert,

best to make a small example of the setup and submit that.

cheers
