Linking a listbox selection to another listbox

Hi,

If I had two list boxes which do not currently link together and have slightly different naming convention. Can I link them together so if you choose a item from listbox 1, I can tell it to select a specific item on listbox 2?

I've seen the use of triggers as one way, but just not sure how.

Hi Manish,

It doesn't quite cover what I need which is if the naming are different.

I only see where the naming within the field is the same.

This is quite difficult if name are not same or there are no association between the two fields..

You can still make it work using multiple if condition But that's not the right solution as your fields name would be dynamic..

No worries. Wanted to see if it was possible. I can turn to a simpler but maybe more messy solution and create several buttons/text boxes with actions which select the required fields I need

Thanks for the help
