i have two list items on my form. one is category of glass's.
eg. saint gobain,Lk etc. and other is size of each category.
i want that when i choose one list item from category then the size's eg 2.2,3.5 etc of that category should apperar in list box at run time.i tried "create group form query" but when i use populate_list then it shows error "invaild column type for column 1". if you know how to do that please answer me. i will be thankfull

I'd say, if the lists are based upon a query, use LOVs.

I've attached a small EMP/DEPT example. List of employees is dependent on list of departments.

I still prefer LOVs but quite nice, Fahed!

I think the guy that PM'ed me can work from here, he has already some possibilities.
