Passing Dropdown Value to Another Page
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to pass the value selected in a dropdown on my Dashboard page to a dropdown on my Job Setup page.
Here's the setup:
- Dashboard Page: Has a dropdown field called "Job" (it's a link to the Job Table but shows as a combo box on the page). The user selects a Job from this dropdown.
- Job Setup Page: Also has a "Job" dropdown (same field type as above). This page is opened when the user clicks a button on the Dashboard page (using the on click action from a formula field).
I want the Job selected on the Dashboard page to automatically be selected in the dropdown on the Job Setup page when it opens.
I can't work out how to reference one variable from the other page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Shane

Is Job Setup Page a Ninox Page? Or a Dashboard?
Can you post your code from the onclick?

Hi there, could you share a screenshot of your Data Model or give us a quick overview of the relationship between these tables?

Thanks Fred and Sotirios,
Both the pages are Ninox Pages.
The Dashboard is linked to the Jobs Table but the Job Setup page isn't linked to anything. I just have it as a way I can control what the user enters before saving anything. There are fields on it but they are all set to just "Per record in Memory".
I've recorded a screen cast here so hopefully it will make it make more sense, and not less!

Many thanks

Thanks Fred,
That worked perfectly.
(Had to make one small change - double quotes on Job Setup in the open page function openPage("Job Setup", "Edit Job").Thank you for your time. Very much appreciated!
