I have a SharePoint 2010 list, EmployeeList. It has fields EmpNo and Department.
I have another list, Drivers in the same site and it also has EmpNo along with other informaiton.
I would like to create an InfoPath form to enter new drivers.
In it, I would like a drop-down for the DriverID field and a text box for Department. The driver id is the employee number. Therefore, the drop-down in DriverID should display all values from EmpNo in EmployeeList. In the form, as soon as I choose one employee number from the drop-down in DriverID, I want the Depatment text box to automatically populate with the corresponding department from EmployeeList.
How can I achieve this?
Good examples at www.infopathdev.com
You will create a data connection to the drivers list
Set up 2 dropdowns
have the second dropdown use the driver list
But have a filter so that empid equals the field of the first dropdown.
