    Update the list of a combo box, depending on another c.b

    I have two tables, which is to generate a form.

    - The first table has 8 different cost centers.
    - The second table have a list of task numbers, and the linked cost centres.

    Each cost centre has a set of task numbers, but there is just one cost center for each task.

    I want to first pick a cost centre from a combo box. I then want the task numbers in the second combo box to be unique for that cost centre.

    How can I do this? By a macro?

    Do anyone know of any other tutorials to dynamic drop down lists, which I can read and try to find out the errors myself?

    Hi Ctech,

    Few regular contributors would be prepared to open unknown attachments.

    Try, instead, enunciating the specific problems that you encounter and show
    the problematic code snippet(s).
