Populating a column with a dropdown datawindow within a datawindow.
I have a datawindow which contains two fields. One is named "customer_name" and the other is "job_siteno". these fields are contained in two different tables which are related by a foreign key column "cust_id". Both of these columns have a DDDW edit control. When I select the customer name I want to then have the "job_siteno" column populated with all the site numbers related to this particular customer. I would then be able to select the site number from the DDDW edit control. Selecting the customer number is no problem. My problem is that the site numbers won't populate correctly unless I enter a value in the retrieval argument window. Also, i don't want the retrieval argument window to appear during run time. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Sheldon Thompson

1. You need to get the reference to the DDDW using the getchild() function. 2. Using the DataWindowChild, insert a row in the child datawindow. This will overcome the retrieval argument runtime window appearing. 3. When entering new record, get the data value of the "customer _name" (most probably cust_id) column and pass it as the retrieval argument to the DataWindowChild and retrieve the DataWindowChild. This will show you records in job_siteno column, related to customer_name.

Sheldon if you found difficult in passing argument to ddw. i suggest you modify the select statement of the ddw. you can use (getsqlselect() and setsqlselect() function).

How Can I access/modify object/control from a Datawindow within Datawindow. When i access/modify object/control from a Datawindow i used dw_1.modify("name.text = 'new val'") but within another datawindow or child datawindow it doesnt work. Your description is difficult to understand due to the terminology. First, a datawindow is assigned to a control - either a datawindow control or a datastore.
