    How to make cascading combobox from multiple tables


    I've figured out how to make a combobox choose a value and filter it for the next combobox when the fields are in the same table.

    How can I make it so I have multiple tables that would work the same way. For example a Product Type (table)>Product (table)>Colors (table). So all independent tables, but making show up in cascade like they would if I had them in one table with the method I'm using now.

    Thanks.

    What method are you using now? There is no fundamental difference in using multiple tables, as long as the related fields exist. For instance, your product table would need a product type field.
