Relate records based off of a multi select field
I have two tables. The parent table is "Checklist", and the child table is "Checklist Items". On "Checklist" I have a field called type that lists options such as:
Checklist Type 1
Checklist Type 2
Checklist Type 3
Checklist Type 4
and so on. On "Checklist Items" table I have a multi select field with these same options, but more than one can be selected. The idea here is that some of the items apply to more than one checklist type.
I have created a relationship so that each "Checklist" can have many "Checklist Items".
I am having trouble getting the two tables to "relate" to one another. For instance, on the "Checklist" table if a user creates a record that is "Checklist Type 1" I would like a report to display that lists all "Checklist Items" that have this option selected, even if they also have other types selected.
Any thoughts on how to make this work properly?
