What does your query look like? Also, shouldn't the onchange even be "this.form.submit();"? Are you submitting to the same form? It seems like you're calling the query once for the selectsrelated tag, submitting the form to itself but the query i s not called again.

Hello, thanks for the tips on this....I am trying to get the cf_twoselectsrelated custom tag going but cant seem to get it to work.....I downloaded the Custom Tag into my Custom Tag folder and the only changes/additions I made were to the cfparam items where a default value was not already assigned(the first 3 items). Now I get this error: An error occurred while evaluating the expression: MyQuery = Evaluate("Caller.#Attributes.Query#") An error has occurred while processing the expression: Caller. ------------------------------- do I need to update this custom tag in anyway... also, my cf_twoselectsRelated code is as follows: <CF_TwoSelectsRelated QUERY="get_outcome" DISPLAY1="Master_Cat" DISPLAY2="vcodedecode" VALUE1="icodedecodetablenameid" VALUE2="icodedecodeid" FORCEWIDTH1="70" FORCEWIDTH2="70" SIZE1="1" SIZE2="1" HTMLBETWEEN="<BR>" AUTOSELECTFIRST="Yes" EMPTYTEXT1="(choose a category)" EMPTYTEXT2="(now choose a subcategory)" ONCHANGE="Submit!" FORMNAME="MyOtherForm"> I am sure I am overlooking a few things here...any ideas? Thanks again!!! --- Raymond Camden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You are correct.
