Oh cool, I didn't realize you could reference another form field for a dropdown. My only issue here - you've already pointed this out - is that I can't pick two fields. One for the value, and the other for the display text. For example - "C" as the value and "Commercial" as the display text for the dropdown. I'm currently using VFront (another php/mysql form/database webapp) but it has its' own issues - it doesn't appear to be actively developed and much of the code is in Italian which is frustrating. But I like some of the form building features - such as integrated validation and key-value pairs for dropdowns. When I found Form Tools - I was pretty excited to find an alternative that's being updated regularly. Perhaps using the option lists won't be a huge deal. I'll have to take a closer look at the validation options though. It's kinda strange the way FormTools allows you to add a record before you update it - leaving all the form fields blank.
