Hi

the state field is on the task table and the substate field is on the incident table . These two fields are on the incident form.

the state field display   choice list depends upon the value of the state field . How this can be achieved?

For particular choice selected in the state field the corresponding values should be displayed in the substate field.

Thanks

It worked . I had not entered the dependent value as numeric . So it was not getting reflected.


Thankyou.

Snehai,


What do you mean by 'the state field display   choice list depends upon the value of the state field' ?



Kind regards,

I believe that you would like the substate field be dependent on state field, is that right ?


Right click on substate field, and select personalize dictionary.


Then scroll down, you will see a tab 'depend FIeld'.


select the check box (make it true) 'Use dependent field'


select 'state' on the field 'Dependent on flied'



Hope it will helps

Hi Snehal,



You need to use dependent concept.


Go to dictionary of the sub state field.


Select advanced view.

In the Dependent value , select the value of the state field accordingly.

Hi Snehal,



Have you created custome field (sub state)on Incident table ? if yes then you can make this field is dependent on State field. And while creating choices in Sub state field slect the dependent choice value of State field in that.



For more information search in wiki for Dependent field and creating Choice values with dependent values.
