Filtering lists by other fields
To help users to complete windows quickly, you can filter lists based on values selected in other fields, so that only related information is returned to the user. For example, you can design a window so that if a user selects a value in the Company control, then the Contacts list displays only those contacts that are associated with the Company.
There are two ways that you can filter lists by other fields:
- if you are not using Web Access, you can use Related List Handlers, which you can configure differently for different windows. However, these are not supported in Web Access. For more information, see Related list handlers.
- if you are using Web Access, you need to use Filter Selectors on the required attributes. For more information, see Data filtering, and Handlers and filters in Web Access windows.
