Okay, let's say I have a simple (car) report that is filtered by country, car, model and seats. I then create an HTML page because I want to (I think) chain these filters. Pretty simple stuff. If I select Japan, it filters down and gives me the options available for car (Toyota), and the same with model (Corolla) and seats (4).

I can switch the direction of the chaining so that if I want all the cars with 4 seats I can select the number of seats first, then the models with that many seats, and then it will filter the other way through the car and country options.

My question is, is there a way to have both of these options at that same time? So at any given time the user can select, for instance, a certain car and it will filter down the models associated with that car and seats, but also the other way to country so the user can see what country it is from. Or anything similar? I've been searching chaining but didn't find anything useful but it may be something total different and I'm just not looking in the right place... Or maybe we just can't do it!

Anyways, thanks for you help!

I've never tried something like that. But maybe you could create two HTML pages? One would chain the first way, the other would be the reverse chain.

Then maybe you could embed both chained HTML pages into a third HTML page using two Frame controls. It would then look like one HTML page with two sets of filters.

Thanks for the input Squatch. I think I understand what you mean. I'll see if I can make that work.
