    Displaying SharePoint list data depending on drop-down list-box selection

     Hi all.

    Total newbie struggling to learn as I go.

    I have a drop-down list-box which displays the first column of a Sharepoint list.

    I'd like to display the second column of that list next to it, when the user makes their selection, but I can't get my head around how to do it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Gav.

     OK, I got it.

    If any other noobs are interested:

    The drop-down list pulls in a list of values from the first column (Change Number) of a Sharepoint list.

    I've inserted a Repeating Table next to it that is bound to the second column of the list (Change Title).

    I've used Conditional formatting to:

    1. If the drop-down selection-box is blank, hide the table.
    2. If the value of the drop-down selection-box is not equal to the value of the 1st column of the Sharepoint list, hide the table.
    and hay presto! When a user selects the Change Number, the correct Change Title is displayed.
