Filtering a list with a combobox

Post by rhofing »

I am new to Base. I have created a form with two controls. A combo box that displays a list of products (table = Products), and a grid that displays product details (table = ProductDetails). They are linked (relationship) by ProductID. I cannot get the grid control to display the details of the Product selected in the combo box. I would appreciate any help on this issue.

A combo box is the same as a text box plus auto-completion. What you want is a list box as described in [Example] Relations reflected by list boxes in forms
