I have two fields in a portal: Resource and Amounts. The resource field is based on a conditional relationship, which works fine, except that it does not display values until something is entered into the amounts field--it would be better to have the resource values display from the beginning.

If I have the amounts field auto-enter a zero, that succeeds in creating resource values up front, but it only works for the first row in the portal, not subsequent ones.

Any ideas how I can get the resource values to show up initially in each row?

Are you creating new records directly in the portal, in the blank row at the bottom?

If so the problem is that the record does not exist yet, so the conditional value lists have nothing to work through.

I thought that might have been the case. So I guess I'm stuck with something a little clunky, having to enter amounts before the resource it refers to, which is fine.
