Populate a DropDownList in a MultiFormView from another DropDownList in another MultiFormView

Hello all,

I have a problem that's had me stumped for the last couple of days.

I have DropDownList1 in a MultiFormView. I need to populate DropDownList2 that sits in a separate MultiformView based on what was selected from DropDownList1, but cannot figure out how to do this.

Example: If I select a department from DropDownList1, I want the names of all of the employees in DropDownList2 in that selected department.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Hello,

Are you wiring all this up in the Code Behind or are you trying to use the generated controls?

Thanks for the reply Blake,

I'm trying to use the generated controls.

I know it's possible to do this in the code-behind, but I would really like avoid that if possible.

Thanks Again.

Hello,

I would just go the code-behind route for now, by the time you got this working with the .netTiers generated controls you could of completed this in the code-behind and taken the rest of the day off of work. The guys who initially implemented this haven't been active in a really long time and these controls need to be updated. If you would like to help us with that that would be awesome. We are currently planning on updating these in .netTiers 3.0.

Thanks
