Passing only one value from multiple current selections to an alternate state

Hi Everyone,

I'm pretty new to QlikView and have been browsing the forums for hours looking for a solution to my problem.

I currently have 4 states including my default state (default state, StateA, StateB, and StateC). Each state has the same list box of values. I want to be able to select 3 items in my default state list box and have these 3 items dispersed between the 3 states.

For example, if item 1, 2, and 3 are selected in the default state, then I want only item 1 selected in StateA, only item 2 selected in StateB, and only item 3 selected in StateC.

I've tried using triggers but I can't seem to figure out how to parse the selections between each state.

All help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Drew

I noticed the max default item selection is 6, even though I will only be passing the top three items to the alternate states, how can I allow the user to select more than 6 items initially?

Sorry, where have you seen this limitation when you are selecting in a list box?

Nevermind, it was an issue within my variable which is defined with GetFieldSelections and if you do not choose a maximum values number then the default is 6.

Thanks again, your method works great!
