Default Dependent Field

Hello Everyone,



I have a field called "Company_1" and a field called "Address_1".

I would like "Address_1" to autopopulate based on "Company_1". I have attached a sample document. Can anyone help?

Have a look at this thread for a method of doing this.

See:
Multiple entries in dropdown lists
and, for different elements from a selected item to be output to different content controls, see:

I was finally able to get a different code to work. The instructions didn't state to download the excel and then make it work for you, but I have it working now.

Nothing in the links Andrew & I posted have anything to do with Excel because your own post mentioned nothing about any data coming from Excel.

HI,

It helps when I include the link that I used:

Yes, I when I reread the instructions, I was able to get it to work. It's a great program that works perfectly.

Now I am trying to add a "select image and move to front" whenever I change the company.
