Hi Guys,

I have a form with an input box for the user. When they enter a code, it populates part of a directory link which works fine, and is based on the client ID. Basically, for example, lets say the client has an inbound directory, and outbound directory and a pending directory. Lets say I:\inbound, O:\Outobund and O:\pending. The structure per client is that followed by client ID, e.g. Client 12345 has I:\Inbound\12345, O:\Outbound\12345. When the user puts the client ID, the detail on the form is populated and creates the hyperlink to the directory. All good.

What I would like to do, and am not sure if it is possible, is when they have populated that in the text box at the top of the form and created the link, is to have a drop down next to the line detail to show a drop down list of items in that directory. Not - not all clients have all directories, but if they do have one then the drop down list of what is in there would be great.

I fell at hurdle 1 which is linking a blank field to the detail line as it bought back all 3 directories per line.

Any help welcomed.

Thx,

M.
