Dependent choice/lookup fields on listitem
Is it possible (without programming) to have fields in listitems that show different choices based on a selection in another field in the same listitem? As an example: If I have a catogory field, I want the topic field to display different possible values depending on which category is chosen. So, what I'm looking after, is if this is some straight forward out-of-the-box functionality or not. I'm using MOSS/WSS 2007.

Hi, this is not possible OOTB in MOSS 2007. Either you can use third party tool from - http://store.bamboosolutions.com/ps-75-5-sharepoint-custom-column-pack.aspx or you can create your own custom code to achieve this. please refer http://apichot.blogspot.com/2007/11/sharepoint-2007-create-field-lookup-and.html hth.

SP 2010 questions are off-topic in the pre-SP 2010 forums and should be asked in a SP 2010 forum.

You can also try some JQUERY base solution ... like this http://spservices.codeplex.com/ http://benvanmol.blogspot.com/2009/07/cascading-fields-solution-using-jquery.html Thanks Ganesh Jat [My Blog | LinkedIn | Twitter ]
