The Ol’ Hidden Items in the Dddw Problem Part II

We all eventually need to build a datawindow where the contents of a drop down list is dependent on the value of another column.

Filtering the available selections in the dddw for the current row is straight forward, just add the necessary filtering script in the RowFocusChanged and ItemChanged events.   (See DDDW Contents Based on the Value of Another Column for more information regarding this. ) But if you have a tabular view, problems may soon become apparent with dependent columns in some rows displaying code values instead of descriptions.
