My Dreaded Dropdown

Avatar

Level 1

I am sure this is somewhere here but being new, I am not able to find one that I can tweak to work for me.

I am trying to make a form for our police department that allows you to select the Offense BURGLARY OF VEHICLES for example, and have it put in the proper Penal Code in a different field which in this case would be PC 30.04. I need to be able to add about 40 different Offenses and Penal Code values.

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

First add the text to the list items on the drop-down.

Then go to the Binding tab, click Specify Item Values and add the penal codes.

In the exit event of the drop-down populate the penal code field with the raw value of the drop-down.

// form1.page1.offense::exit - (JavaScript, client)


form1.page1.penalCode.rawValue = form1.page1.offense.rawValue;
