I didn't exactly do what you did but you gave me an idea.

Thanks for helping me out man..

So this is what i did under the list box:

=IF(Qnum='10.a' or Qnum= '10.b', subfield(Qnum, '.',1),Qnum)

So generally it will refer to both types in the list box.

It will show this:

you Need a Connection between the fields.

so if you define question and subquestion your selection will work, otherwise not

question subquestions type

1 - B

..    ..

10 a B

10 b B

11 - B

Hi ,

Create one more column in using substring ()(use,Mid or Left) so that you can have only number part in this column and rename it as Question also rename your Question column from Type with other name and use this column in list box.

So that association will be created with Question and when you will select 10 your Type B will show you 10.a and 10.b

Thanks

The simplest way is just to enter 10 in the search window of the list box, note the question values need to be loaded as text:
