Populate a field based on dropdown choice

Hi Linda Souza,

I literally wrote the book on that.

I hope this helps!

Thank you Patrick... I saw that post and tried to make it work.  I don't think I explained myself...

I have a dropdown with List with Company.  When User chooses the Company from the dropdown, I need a field to populate with the Company Address that is stored in another DropDown "Company_Address"

So, if User chooses "Linda Company" from Company DropDown, then I need the associated Address to populate the field "Company Address"

I don't know the formula, but Address = 

Case when Company "Linda", then  "1 Main Street, City, State", when Company "Bob" then "2 Elm Street, City, State"

Hi Linda Souza,

1. If the Item Names are identical between dropdown lists, then:

getDropdownValue("Company_Address_list",$company_name_field)

2. If the Item Names differ between the two dropdown lists, then make a third list that you don't use in a field. The Item Names in this new list should be identical to the Item Names in the Company_Name_list and the Display Labels for each need to match the Item Names in Company_Address_list that correspond to the addresses you want to display from Company_Address_list. Then:

getDropdownValue("Company_Address_list",getDropdownValue("Company_Bridge_list",$company_c))

Here is a series of screenshots to show an example of #2 above:

company_c is the dropdown field where the user would select Linda or Bob.

This is the dropdown list used in company_c. Note the Item Names Linda_Company and Bob_Company.

Likewise, here is the dropdown list containing the addresses:

Because the Item Names in the two dropdown lists differ, I had to make this 'bridge' dropdown list:

Finally, here is the TextField calculated for the address:

Note the formula:

getDropdownValue("Company_Address_list",getDropdownValue("Company_Bridge_list",$company_c))

I hope this helps!
