lownoma925 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) After quite a bit of searching and all, what I'm trying to accomplish is for an auto body repair shop, but I need to allow for selection of the year (which is in the vehicles table and a field called years with two digit values separated by a space ie: '00 01 02' but I need to be able to select a year for instance, 00, then it'll allow me to select a make, so all the makes (makes field within the same table) availible under year 00 will show. Then, the same with models (models are under models field under vehicles table). Is there a way to do this? login.zip Edited September 13, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have the table made for you invoice, job order, (whatever you are going to call it), you will form a relationship from that Table Occurence to vehicle Table Occurence. You almost have the vehicle table done, except you will need a separate record for each combination. You can't put more than one year in the year field. Audi TT 00 Audi TT 01 and so on. Then when you make the relationship between these TO's, you will be able to use a conditional value list to get what you want. I just went through this myslef.

comment Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 You can get away just by using a carriage return as the separator, instead of space (you can modify your existing data by using Replace Fields Contents..., just make sure you have a backup).
