Options in a drop down
I have an application that uses a reference field to pull in info from another table and another drop down with different options.
Is there a way to make the drop down only display certain options...

Does your secondary option have the matching input to match 123 with ABC in your example? Assuming that your second option is a reference field to another table also you can certainly use conditional dropdowns and is the way you want to go. Can you provide a little more info to help us figure out how to set that up in your structure?

My secondary field is not in a reference field it just in a regular drop down field. The one field uses information referenced in another field to supply the drop down options - and based of what is selected in that field I would like to have my other drop down field only show certain options vs all of the options - or even default select an option for them.

------------------------------Unfortunately conditional dropdowns are only accessible through a relationship/table type setup. I would advise that instead of using a generic text-multiple choice with shared values that you create a table of those options and have your users pick from that table accordingly. That is the only way to dynamically update the list of options in a dropdown on a record by record basis.

------------------------------Ok, when I build the table with the additional options how do I create the condition for the new related field to only show certain options based off of choices in another reference field?
