Multibox expression

Hi

I have two table with almost identical fields, one table has Meter details, including the meter serial number for example, I have an id field as well, which I use to link to the meter readings table. They have various fields(locations, meter types) with the same names so I use aliases. In one Table I need to give the details of the meters and in the other the meter readings, then we can start doing comparisons on the percentage of meter read during a month.

My questions is how do I link the two fields in the Multibox for selections. Hope this makes sense.

If there is an unique id in both tables they should work "out of the box".

As Avinash mention , you can post a screenshot of your data or model.

I thought of doing the screenshots, but when testing it worked actually, the situation is

Two tables

1 with Township called Township, other table has Township field named MRTownship

On Selection Multibox if I select Township the selection is made on Table1 and it pulls through on Table2 as well because I linked the two table with a Meter number, it seems to work, on the meter reading side(table 2 I just have to hide records there the readingdate or period is null, so in effect hiding record where there is no meter reading
