I have the following tables and fields
customer.`Customer_Name`

customer.`Billing_Address`

sites.`Customer_Name`

sites.`Site_Address`

sites.`ID`

job.`Job_No`

job.`Customer_Name`

job.`Order_Site_Address`
In customer.`Customer_Name` I have about 30 customers with Billing address
In my sites table I have selected the following
Customer_Name = customerA, and customerB

Site_Address = site1A, site2A and site3A site1B, site2B and site3B
In the lookup wizard In the boxes I have the following
Table = sites

Link Field = Customer_Name

Display Field = Site_Address
This dropdown is dependant on

Catagory Control = Customer_Name (which is coming from the job table)

Catagory Field = Customer_Name
When I test it, it works, but when I build it, It wont work?
Any ideas please?
Cheers

Paul

Ok I have tried something different
I double click on my Order_Site_Address which is in the job table
I select the Lookup wizard and select lookup table

In Table I have sites

Link Field is site_address

Display Field is site_address

Order By is site_address

unique values is ticked

allow to add new values on the fly is ticked

This dropdown is dependant on

Catagory control is Customer_Name from the job table

Catagory Field is Customer Name from the site table.
When I test it, it works, but when I build it and try it, it wont work??
Here are my three tables involved.

The aim is to click on order_site_address and pick from the list which is selected from the customer name.

It's difficult to tell you what's happening without seeing actual files.
Please publish your project on Demo Account and send to support@xlinesoft.com a URL to your pages along with instructions on reproducing this error.

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