You can control for each item.  Please provide what you would want in the droplist and the values to display and I'll build a quick sample

I realize now some of my issues, i have a globy file which contains a preset number of fields in it,each preset field contains a certain unique number associated with it...when i select from a previous dropdown list  that contains other fields the values in each of those fields will change from its unique number to a common number.....

The first drop list contains the following items

set, consolidated, integrated,  transitional, flex, flexible transfer and a few others, The values only change to one other value doesnt matter which i select.

The second dropdown list is the globy file which contains the following

function globya()

{

switch  (sNewSel)

{

case "Aboriginal Diabetes Initiative":

AC = "KC01"

GL = "76721"

break;

}

there are many more items listed and i didnt want to add them here but the only item I would like to change is the GL to an universal number which would be 76709

I hope this helps explain otherwise I could send you the complete form that I have, thanx in advance

The event is set to "initialize" and this is javascript on the droplist object:

Assuming you have textfields named AC & GL.

var sNewSel = this.rawValue;

switch (sNewSel)

{

  case "Aboriginal Diabetes Initiative":

    xfa.form.form1.BodyPage1.AC.rawValue="KC01";

    xfa.form.form1.BodyPage1.GL.rawValue="76721";

    break;

}

Copy the script and add your other options between the brackets

thanx for your help but i  need to get away from this for a while, im a wee bit frustrated and it doesnt seem to work. Basically when i select from "set" and consolidated in the first droplist the values in the globy file remain the same...its when i select transitonal, integrated flex and flexible transfer I would like the values to change in the globy file to change from the default gl to a new number which is always 76709
