January 15, 200124 yr Help, I would like to know how to selectively pick a list of records that match a certain criteria from another file. For ex: For employees: I want a popup list of developers from my Employee database but only employees with position "developer" Thanks!
January 15, 200124 yr Try the following: In your employee database create the following fields: Employee Name (TEXT) Employee Position (TEXT) Developers List (CALCULATION) where the calculation is: If( Employee Position = "developer", Employee Name, "") Define a value list 'Developers' and check the options 'Use values from field ...' and specify 'Developers List' In your second file define a value list 'Developers' and check the option 'Use value list from another file' and specify 'Developers from file "Employee DB.fp5" ' You can now specify this value list where you require it.
