Have you tried "Field Event Triggers"?

So if i understand requirement, you are trying to clear selections on first field, if user starts his selections on second field. if this is true, please go to document properties and add "Clear Action" on "Month" field and choose "ID" as field to clear.

According to the qvw that you sent, the ID 1 is available the for months Jan and Feb so that the user can choose any of them. However if you choose the ID 2 it is only available the month of February, so if you select Jan it deselect the ID. This is so. That's QV way.

Hi,

Use the trigger to clear the selection for id field when we select the field in list box.

Go to

Settings->Document Properties->Trigger->Filed Trigger->Select Month->Clear field(ID)

I am not sre if I understood you correctly, but what I got is :

You want the selection in ID field to be cleared as soon as the user starts doing the selection in Month list box.

If this is the case then to achieve it, you can write an action/trigger on the field "Month" to clear the selection in "ID" field. For this go to Properties-Dcument Properties-Triggers and add an action

Action Type : Selection

Action : Clear field

And give the field name in which you want to clear the selections (In your case "ID")

Hope this helps!
