Hi Will-

What you're looking for is called cascading dropdowns. A Google search on that should yield a few guides on how to accomplish what you desire.

Good luck!

Populating a dropdownlist using another dropdownlist using XML for Data Source

Hey guys, I'm new to InfoPath and my title is basically my question already so I won't re-type it but I am trying to each dropdownlist dependent on each other.

Example:

A1, A2, B1, B2, F - will be in a dropdownlist

A1(football,basketball...etc), A2(swimming,running...etc), B1(hockey,snowboarding..etc), and so on for B2 and F - this will also be a dropdownlist depending on if you choose A1 then only the sports in A1 will show up afterwards

A1(football - Packers,Vikings, Bears, Lions; Basketball - Lakers, Miami, Boston, Dallas; etc) and so on for A2,B1,B2 and F. and yes this will also be a dropdownlist according to what you pick from above.

Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for the help guys.
