Hi
I currently have a form in which you select from the prop_type field and then a field with the relevant subtypes shows up.

The saletypes are currently in 5 separate fields right now (saletype1 -5), all showing records from the same mysql table, using a different recordset each. They are hidden at the start and then a different field appears depending on selection.

What I would like to be able to do is to have my initial prop_type field as it is now, but the saletype field showing underneath as one field only and then depending on what is selected first, the data changes, but not the whole field.

If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great!

Many thanks
