Newbies bigpix Posted August 3, 2010 Newbies Posted August 3, 2010 I'm sure this is probably a really easy fix and it's probably been answered here in this forum, but I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for. What I have is two Value Lists. I want to just be able to add data from one Value List, match it to the corresponding data in the second list and populate another field. For Example, COWP relates to Ski_Winter-Park.html. COWP is in the first Value List and Ski_Winter-Park.html is in the second. Is this done as a calculation or relationship, or what? As I said, I'm sure it's an easy fix, just not sure what it is. Thanks, Ann
comment Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 I think it would be better to use a two-field table for this.
Newbies bigpix Posted August 3, 2010 Author Newbies Posted August 3, 2010 I've never worked with Tables before, at least not in creating them. But I figured that part out. I still can't get how I match up the content of the two Value Lists. I decided to upload the file so you can see what I'm trying to do. The related fields are Dest Code and Dest Hot Deals. What I'd like to do is enter the data in the Dest Code field and have it match up to the corresponding Dest Hot Deals data.
comment Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 I don't see your file. Perhaps this might help: example.zip
Newbies bigpix Posted August 5, 2010 Author Newbies Posted August 5, 2010 This looks like what I want to do. I'm trying to apply the criteria from the example you posted and I think I'm close, but it's still not behaving quote the way I want. I've tried attaching my file again and hopefully it works this time. Thanks. merge_Converted_copy.fp7.zip
comment Posted August 5, 2010 Posted August 5, 2010 In the relationship setup, link Dest Code to Dest Code.
Newbies bigpix Posted August 6, 2010 Author Newbies Posted August 6, 2010 Thank you so much! That little change fixed the problem right away. Now the database is merrily doing exactly what I want it to do.
