(Thread)</title><description> I am trying to work out a way of making the selection of one item in a dropdown field determine the values which appear in another dropdown field as per the following example: &#xD;
   Example:   &#xD;
&#xD;
 Dropdown Box 1 named 'Functional Area' and Dropdown Box 2 named 'Functional Area Sub Category'  &#xD;
 If the user selects the value 'Interfaces from Box 1, only those items relating to 'interfaces' should be displayed in Box 2.  &#xD;
 My initial thoughts would be to have a custom list called 'Functional Area' containing all of the parent values. I would then create customised lists for each functional area which would be linked to the 'Sub Category' field.  &#xD;
 If someone could advise whether this is possible or a suitable alternative that would be a huge help. </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/613.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=613</guid><author>Simon Jones (simon.jones@amec.com)</author><title>Is it possible to have dependencies between lists?</title><description> I am trying to work out a way of making the selection of one item in a dropdown field determine the values which appear in another dropdown field as per the following example: &#xD;

Hi Simon  One option would be to use a simple list and simply add hyphens to indent the categories under each other.
