If you want it done on the fly then you need to use JavaScript. I use
qForms for this, but I usually have more like 6 related boxes. If you
will be doing just two or three, you could use Nate's tags,
TwoSelectsRelated or ThreeSelectsRelated. With Nate's tags you just
need
to get your recordset returned to match his tags needs. With qForms
you
would have to build the JavaScript structures via either CF inside the
script or making the structure in CF and then using WDDX to get it
into
the JS.
