Selectively Use A Drop Down List - wychegnome - Dec 14th, 2014

Is it possible to selectively use a drop down list based on the entry made in a different field?

To illustrate what I have in mind and would wish to do:

Field 1 is populated by an entry selected from a drop down list giving a choice between 'door', 'window' and 'garden'.

Field 2 is a detail relating to the content in Field 1 and is best filled by using a drop down list of choices. BUT, the content of the drop down list needs to be tailored relevant to the intial choice selected in Field 1 as the choices for door, window and garden are different.
For 'door' in Field 1 the multiple choices might be 'front', 'back', 'patio';
For 'window' in Field 1 the multiple choices might be 'casement', 'fixed', 'hinged';
For 'garden' in Field 1 the multiple choices might be 'lawn', 'concrete', 'hanging'.

Could the experts please advise.

It is possible with an external form but not an internal form.

Check out this tutorial to get you started.

I rather thought I'd have to use external forms which, for other reasons, I want to avoid.

Thank you for responding Alex.

Let me know if you end up doing it and need any direction on making it work. I just created a similar form on a project of mine, but it's of course an external form.
