Re: [plum] Filtered Select Lists and IDs

[David Churvis]

Marwan,   On which form is this problem occurring?  Also, are you trying to use filtered select menus, or are you wanting to display static values on the form?   Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: Marwan Saidi To: plum@productivityenhancement.com Sent: Friday, January 07, 2005 10:24 AM Subject: [plum] Filtered Select Lists and IDs I have a table Models which includes the columns AreaID (an FK pointing back to the Areas Table), LowerPG (FK to the Pay Grade table) and UpperPG (another FK from Pay Grade). In the Plum IDE, the database info shows me my parent table relationships to the Models table, but when I generate forms, they automatically use the AreaID and PayGradeID (ints) rather than the Text label associated with each. This is expected, but in the tutorials it shows the parent items in the “columns not on this form” and suggests to swap out the ID column with the name column. However, those parent form columns are not in my form choosers. Does this make sense? What am I doing wrong?
