Values List question

Gentlemen,

I have two value lists: Category and Subcategory.

Category contains the following: Food, Drinks. Subcategory contains: Chips, Soda, Juice. 

How can I do the following thing: when choosing Food, I want Chips field only be available for selection (no drinks displayed).  And vise versa.

 

Thanks!

 

You will need to search for 'Conditional Value List' or 'Dwindling Value List' on the forums.  There are many easy examples to emulate samples.
