I have a table names Contacts.  I am trying to create a relationship for a drop down list that will not include the current contact in the list.  For example: I have Bob, Ted, Mary and Alice as data.  When I am on Bob's record I want to have the drop down only include Ted, Mary and Alice.

 

Thanks...

You need a self-join relationship (using another occurrence of the Contacts table), defined as:

 

Contacts::ContactID ≠ Contacts 2::ContactID

 

Then define your value list to use values from Contacts2::ContactID, include only related values, starting from Contacts.

 

 

Hopefully, you are using unique id's to select your contacts, instead of names.

P.S. Is that the most descriptive title you could have thought of?

Thanks much.  I had everything as you described EXCEPT the include only related values... it was late, i was tired, arghh!  Hence the underwhelming title 

 

Again, thanks!
