preset value in dependent dropdown

Having a problem with dependent dropdowns....
The project presets the value of the master control field via smart assign in a before display event. It also attempts to set the dependent field the same way however:

  1. The dependent does not display the assigned value
  2. The dependent does not display any choices in its dropdown until after the master field has been changed. Once the master has been changed it then displays the correct list of values.
    Of course that defeats the purpose of presetting the master control field.
    In a MS-Access project I would force a requery of the dependent control field. What can we do with phprunner?

Giles,
I wasn't able to reproduce this issue.

Please publish your project on Demo Account and post a URL to your pages here or send it to [email=support@xlinesoft.com]support@xlinesoft.com[/email] along with instructions on reproducing error.

I'll find what's wrong with your project inspecting it at Demo account site.
