In our FM-system, we have a separate file for suppliers (printers, papermills, prepress ...). I have tried to make a dynamic valuelist for each type of supplier, which works fine as long I'm in the same file. For example the field PRINTER_LIST (calc = "printer") is related to the field TYPE.

Then I want to use this value list in another file in the system, I create a value list in the second file using "Use value list from another file". But that doesn't work...

Any ideas? Or isn't possible?

Keep in mind if you are using value lists that require a relationship in order to make them function as a conditional value list, you cannot simply use this value list in another table/file. You have to recreate the same field/relationship conditions in your new file/table as well in order to use this value list in another table/file.
