April 5, 200718 yr Is there a work around for this Valuelist showing as well as field 1 / field 2 example : 100 aaa 100 bbb When selecting in a dropdown I get only 1 possibility to choose: 100 aaa Kind regards
April 5, 200718 yr If you are sorting it by the first field, which in this case you are, it will only display the first instances of duplicate values in the sorted order. Value lists normally only display a value only once. If this was sorted by the second field, then you would see both. However, that may not be feasible in which case you may have to go with either a concatanated field of fields 1 & 2 or you could use a popup window to allow your users to choose from that list instead or FM's value list.
April 5, 200718 yr Author Simple but effective. I just make a suplementary column with the concatenate of the others. Thanks for the suggestion Kind regards
April 5, 200718 yr Author Ok but I have one small problem: The fields were : number text1 text2 100 AAA BBB 100 CCC DDD The value list was show in field 'number'. So after choosing, the number was correctly filled in the 'number' field And via a calculation, the corresponding values were set in the fields 'text1' and 'text2'. I do not have space to create an extra field in the layout for the concenate. So suppose I use the concenate as value list in field 'number'. But how do I have to do to show in field 'number' again only the corresponding number ? Can I use the calc methode as for the other fields?
