Here is a sample code from one of my projects: Private Sub ActivateCardsBrowseDialog_ComboListPopulating(ByVal FieldName As String, ByVal e As MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.ListPopulatingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.ComboListPopulating '-- Populate the Printer & Carrier data based on their VendorType Select Case FieldName Case bizTransaction.bizTransactionFieldNames.FK_Vendor_Printer.ToString '-- Pass the PrimaryBO EditingState to filter out Active records if needed. e.Parameters(0).Value = MicroFour.StrataFrame.Business.BusinessEditingState.Idle e.Parameters(1).Value = Business.bizVendor.bizVendorFieldNames.IsInactive.ToString e.Parameters(2).Value = Business.Enumerations.VendorType.Printer Case bizTransaction.bizTransactionFieldNames.FK_Vendor_Carrier.ToString '-- Pass the PrimaryBO EditingState to filter out Active records if needed. e.Parameters(0).Value = MicroFour.StrataFrame.Business.BusinessEditingState.Idle e.Parameters(1).Value = Business.bizVendor.bizVendorFieldNames.IsInactive.ToString e.Parameters(2).Value = Business.Enumerations.VendorType.Carrier End Select End Sub Of course you need to setup your combobox population accordingly as you would normally do in a regular form.

Group: StrataFrame Users Posts: 322, Visits: 529	Hi Edhy. I hate to be a pain, but I am almost there. This is what I have: I have a "plants" combo as the first search criterion. I have a departments combo as the second search criterion. When the user pick a plant as a search criterion, I want only the departments for that plant displayed as the in the departments combo. Can I do that? Thanks! Marcia

Group: StrataFrame Users Posts: 322, Visits: 529	Hi Edhy. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. This works: private void brwProjects_SearchValueChanged(object sender, MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.BrowseDialogSearchValueChangedEventArgs e) { if (e.SourceSearchField.FieldName.Equals("plant", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) && ((ComboBox)e.SourceControl).SelectedIndex > 0) { e.AllVisibleSearchControls["dept"].Enabled = true; object[] oParms = new object[1]; oParms[0] = ((ComboBox)e.SourceControl).SelectedValue.ToString().Trim(); ((MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.ComboBox)e.AllVisibleSearchControls["dept"]).Requery(oParms); } }

I really appreciate your willingness to help and your quick response time. I try to give back by posting solutions to questions that I have posted (when I find them ) so that I can give back a little JIC someone else encounters something similar. I know that I always do a search to see if a solution has already been found before I post a question. Have a great day!
