there are three tables
---------
company
---------
c_id (pk)
c_name

---------
c_vehicle
---------
c_v_no (pk)
c_id (fk)

---------
c_entry
--------
sr_id (pk)
c_id (fk)
c_v_no (fk)

Now in [c_entry] table.
[c_id] and [c_v_no] both are list items.
I want that when i select some value in list [c_id]
then 2nd list [c_v_no] populates according to the value of
list [c_id]
-------------------------
How is it possible.Working in Forms 6i

Take both list item as non base table items where as the take the base table items C_ID and C_V_NO as display item with visible false.

Now On LIST-ITEM-CHANGED of C_ID populates the other list item C_V_NO and also move the values of C_ID & C_V_NO list item values into the coresponding base table items of your base table block.

Musman,

Are you populating the both the lists dynamically?
If so make 2 different procedures. One to populate List 1 and the other for List 2.

If so, just call the procedure to populate List 2 in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger of the List 1.

Also add VALIDATE(item_scope) IN THE WHEN-LIST-CHANGED trigger of the List 1.

Need more help post back.

check for the following:

1) is the query that you have written to populate the record group working in SQL?
2) is the length of the value column within the length limits of the list field?
3) check if the populate procedure for the 2nd list is being actually called.

if it is not too much paste the code here. the one that you are using in the when-new-form and when-validate-item.

hay i use each way as far as i concern but no avail.
thats code am using to populate 1st list on when_new_form_instance.
declare
	rg_name VARCHAR2(40) :='TYPEID';
	rg_id RecordGroup;
	gc_id GroupColumn;
	errcode NUMBER;
	
begin
	CLEAR_LIST('MAIN.SYS_ID');
	rg_id := Find_Group(rg_name);
	IF Id_Null(rg_id) then
		rg_id := Create_Group(rg_name);
	  gc_id := Add_Group_Column(rg_id,'DESCRIPTION',CHAR_COLUMN,60);	
		gc_id := Add_Group_Column(rg_id,'TYPE_ID',CHAR_COLUMN,3);
	
	end if;
	errcode := Populate_Group_With_Query(rg_id,
                      'select sym_code,company_code from companies order by sym_code');
	message('error code is'||errcode);
	POPULATE_LIST('MAIN.SYS_ID',RG_ID);
end;

----------------------------------------------------
and the code am using on when_validate_item on first list is
PROCEDURE list_control IS
BEGIN
  declare
	rg_name VARCHAR2(200) :='CID';
	rg_id RecordGroup;
	gc_id GroupColumn;
	errcode NUMBER; 
	checki NUMBER;
	
begin
	CLEAR_LIST('MAIN.C_NAME');
	rg_id := Find_Group( rg_name );   
	IF NOT Id_Null(rg_id) THEN     
		Delete_Group( rg_id );  
		END IF;
	rg_id := Find_Group(rg_name);
	IF Id_Null(rg_id) then
		rg_id := Create_Group(rg_name);
	  gc_id := Add_Group_Column(rg_id,'NAME',CHAR_COLUMN,100);	
		gc_id := Add_Group_Column(rg_id,'CID',CHAR_COLUMN,100);
	
	end if;
	errcode := Populate_Group_With_Query(rg_id,
                       'select company_name,company_code from companies
	where sym_code='||:SYS_ID);
	
	message('error code is'||sqlerrm);
	message('error code is'||errcode);

	POPULATE_LIST('MAIN.C_NAME',rg_name);
end;
END;


------------------------------------

Use the below code

For List 1.
DECLARE
   rg_name VARCHAR2(40) :='TYPEID';
   rg_id   RECORDGROUP;
   errcode NUMBER;
BEGIN
   CLEAR_LIST('MAIN.SYS_ID');
   rg_id := Find_Group(rg_name);
   IF Id_Null(rg_id) then
      rg_id := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name ,
                   'select sym_code, company_code from companies order by sym_code');
   end if;
   errcode := POPULATE_GROUP(rg_name);
   MESSAGE('error code is'||errcode);
   errcode := POPULATE_LIST('MAIN.SYS_ID',RG_ID);
END;




For list 2
Before calling this procedure... check if the sys_id is not null.
PROCEDURE list_control IS
   rg_name VARCHAR2(200) :='CID';
   rg_id RecordGroup;
   errcode NUMBER; 	
begin
   CLEAR_LIST('MAIN.C_NAME');
   rg_id := Find_Group( rg_name );   
   IF Id_Null(rg_id) then
      rg_id := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name ,
                   'select company_name,company_code from companieS where sym_code=  '''||:SYS_ID||'''');
   end if;
   errcode := POPULATE_GROUP(rg_name);
   MESSAGE('error code is'||errcode);
   errcode := POPULATE_LIST('MAIN.C_NAME',rg_name);
END;


checking your sql query closer... to the first query you are passing SYM_CODE and COMP_CODE.
DO they hold the same values?

If yes then no probs but if no, then there may be your problem. the first field that you enter in the query takes the list element label and the second field is the element value. So your list is passing the value of COMP_CODE into SYS_ID and not SYM_CODE. Also the 2nd list's query is also pikcing up the value of COMP_CODE.

if this is your problem you can modify the query of either of the list accordingly.
