Lock/Unlock a field depending on selections in another field

Hi Community

I've two fields in list boxes - Product and Region.

My requirement is to force users to select a product prior to selecting a region.

For this I guess I've to lock the field region when there is no selections in product and then unlock it as soon as selection(s) is made on Product and repeat.

Please advise a way to achieve this.

*** I don't want to show/hide Region based on selection in Product.

*** I don't want to Hide the Region field with a text object.

Thanks! in advance

Hi,

1 solution comes to my mind:

Create a conditional display on the second listbox like: Getselectedcount(field1)<>0 //this will show the second listbox only if you make selection on the first one.

Also, create a textbox to show message like: SELECT A VALUE ON FIRST LISTBOX with conditional display like: Getselectedcount(field1)=0 //this will show this textbox only if you don't select a value on the first listbox

Or anoher solution would be to write this expression on the second listbox: =if(GetSelectedCount(field1)<>0,field2)
