Posted on by MarkBaker

I have a dataverse table named Site Items with 2 columns, Item and Material Site.

Item is a lookup and points to Name column in the table named Items .

Material Site is also a lookup that points to Name in the table named Material Sites .

I have a combo box named cmbItem who's data source is Items with primary text set to Name that when selected I want another combobox named cmbSite to display every Material Site Name from Site Items when the records value in the Item column is equal to what is selected in cmbItem.

I played around with Filter(Choices( but im lost. I also see i might need to use something like [@'Site Items'].'Material Site' ?

thanks for the help.

Hi @MarkBaker ,

Please try the following:
Filter('Site Items',Item.Item=cmbItem.Selected.Item)
You may want to set the display value of your cmbsite combobox to the desired column.

I got that far before using:
Filter('Site Items',Item.Name=cmbItem.Selected.Name)
But I can't choose the lookup column Material Site for the other combo box's primary text field. its missing from the dropdown list.

thanks

You are right @MarkBaker .

It looks like you want to change it a little bit. Please try this one below:
ForAll(Filter('Site Items',Item.Item=cmbItem.Selected.Item), 'Material Site'.Name)
Please make sure you use the right 'Material Site' if you select from intel sense. Hope this one will help.

That worked. I just had to change to this:
ForAll(Filter('Site Items',Item.Name=cmbItem.Selected.Name), 'Material Site'.Name)

Thanks
