    filling in a dropdown with another dropdown

    I have a dropdown that contains a work order number
    i want the client in another dropdown
    and when that client apprears in the drop down i want another set of text boxes to update with the client address.
    so far i can update the client name
    and from the client name item i can update the addresses but when i set the client name from the work order the address is not automaticallyy populated, unless i fill in the client dropdown manually.

    wo_________- I enter here (only client here wrt id)
    Client_________ it fills here (client and adress are in my contacts)

    Address_________ but not here

    Hi darronpustam and welcome to the forums!

    What you are looking for is something called "cascading dropdowns". You should be able to find what you are looking for by searching our forums with those keywords, or taking a look at our library of Tutorials:http://infopathdev.com/howto/tutorials/default.aspx
