Hello Dick,
Thank you very much. That works great.
I have 5 dropdowns on a single page. I'm trying to determine now which one
an item was selected from. CFIF ISDefined ("Area_Name") does not work
because it contains the default - first item in the table. As do the names
of each of the dropdowns.
Is the best way to determine which was accessed is to have a "Default" value
as the first Item in the table (dynamic) that feeds the dropdown?
Like "NONE" or blank or something?
