    Autofill from Previous Field

    Hello,



    I have a form that uses a subtable. In this subtable, I would like to autofill one field (description) based on the value chosen from another field (part number). The part number field is a drop-down box that the user scrolls and chooses the item so, based on that selection, I want the description field to automatically update. The descriptions and part numbers are contained in a separate table. I'm a bit confused how to put this all together.

    Thanks for the help!
