Ok, let’s do some brainstorming!

What do you ahave, what is your situation?

  1. Database-A —> “Authors” (let’s say about 20-Authors in the DB)

  2. Database-B —> “Journal-Details”

  3. Filtering-process by author.

  4. Filled DropDown (Author)

  5. Filled DropDown (Journal-Details after filtering by author)

  6. To create the “Author”-DropDown you won’t need any CODE.
    Just connect your database with the help of a dataset with your drop-down.
    You will find some options when clicking on the DropDown.
    There you will be able to chose from where (which database) you want to fill your DropDown. This will be your first step.

After you have done it, you will see all the AUTHORs in your Drop-Down you can choose. This part was completely CODE-FREE.

Your first DropDown should be ready.

  1. Filtering-process:
    To create a filter which will filter DATABASE-B (“Journal-Details”) it is necassyry, that you take a closer look, how the given example works.

Your second step would be to filter the data.
