Our miniExtensions Form has many powerful features and this is one of them. It allows you to dynamically filter through linked records based on certain field(s) in the linked table. For example, instead of showing a list of all cities, you can allow users to select a county first to narrow down the options, so they can find their city faster. Also, you can select multiple fields as filters.
This is a way to create a Dependent Drop Down List by limiting which linked records are shown depending on what users have put in another field.
