Re: Cascading Dropdowns
Thank you, Don. Your "Last Steps" were the pieces I was missing, and I have made it work just as I had hoped...
...with one exception. The dropdown menus contain just what I specified EXCEPT for the item at the bottom which allows the user to add a category. I don't want the general user to be able to add a Category 1 or Category 2. We had users being lazy and adding a new category when they had something unfamiliar to them, rather than think through how it could fit into an existing category.
I have hidden the Category 1 and Category 2 tables from the Table Bar so users can't see them, but those dropdown menus are setting me up for trouble with that "add" option. Can I turn that option off?
And, thank you again for getting me over the obstacle.
