When I select a category in the incident form than an associated subcategory, both fields revert back to -- None --

Need help with Incident Category/Subcategory association:

I set up 15 categories and 100 sub categories.   Each subcategory has the category in the Dependent Value field to associate them with the appropriate category.   However, when I select a category in the incident form than an associated subcategory, both fields revert back to -- None --.   The associations are working (selecting a category has the right subcategories).   Its just when I select category/subcategory they both revert back to None..

Here is a screen shot of the categories

Here is a screen shot of subcategories

Uncheck the "Use dependent field" checkbox on the Category Dictionary Entry form:
