I was not able to find any post there, however, it seems that one could have an intermediate field where the webservice maps to. then , Onafterchange event on the 2nd dropdown: 1- call the query , wait for the data to be there in the intermediate field, 2- take the data from the intermediate field and populate the dropdown .
