CUSTOM.pll or Customization: When the 1st field is changed, change automatically 2nd field

2613796Apr 1 2014 — edited Apr 3 2014

I have a following requirement,

When the user changes the field (FIELD_1), other field (FIELD_2) on the form need to be changed automatically based on the edition.

I searched the forum, stumbled across (When-Validate-Item in Forms Personalization) and there it seems to say that you can do it only in CUSTOM.pll.

I am new to customization, specially CUSTOM.pll - please can someone help me with this?

I can make this work with customization (it does work!), but the trigger event is (to my shame) - after editing FIELD_1 on the 1st tab, clicking on the next tab where FIELD_2 is - and then it changes (every time I click on tab). So I need some nicer trigger event that works when I edit the field (not with tab clicking). There are some other default fields (FIELD_3 etc) that change in the same automatic way I need after editing FIELD_1, but FIELD_2 is custom made. There is a table with FIELD_1 and FIELD_2 values and I know how to take values from there. The only problem is the trigger event.

With all due respect,

Tamara
