    <p>David:</p> <p>You really should have asked this on the <a href="http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions" rel="nofollow">SPServices site in the Discussions</a> to start with!</p> <p>What you are showing in your code above isn't necessary. If you make the two calls to SPCascadeDropdowns in the order you show, then you don't need </p> <pre><code>CAMLQuery: "&lt;Eq&gt;&lt;FieldRef Name='Unit'/&gt;&lt;Value Type='Text'&gt;Unit 1&lt;/Value&gt;&lt;/Eq&gt;" </code></pre> <p>That's how the cascading works. The first call will limit the Departments to those that are in the selected Unit on selection of Unit. The second call will limit the Assets to those that are in the selected Department on selection of Department.</p> <p>If you aren't getting the results you expect, then your relationshipLists may not have the values in them that you need.</p> <p>M.</p> <p>Edit based on additional info about the list contents:</p> <p>It's definitely a data problem. You are combining relationships in the Department list and the Assets list. You should have these lists:</p> <ul> <li>Departments -- Each Department in the list exactly once.</li> <li>Units -- Each Unit in the list exactly once, with a column as a lookup to Title in Department indicating that Unit's Department.</li> <li>Assets -- Each Asset in the list exactly once, with a column as a lookup to Title in Units indicating that Asset's Unit.</li> </ul> <p>This makes your lists truly relational and then the calls to SPCascadeDropdowns will do what you want, just as in the example in the docs for Country/Region/State/City.</p>

    1. COHello Marc, Thank you for answering my question and helping out. I appreciate that I should have left this on SPServices site but I found that you had already answered that this was not possible in the current implementation. The problem I have is that if I do what you are suggesting I am getting duplicate Departments as the Units are very similar to each other. So that is why I need to filter the Departments on the unit Column to make sure I get the assets belonging to that Department in that unit and not another unit.

    2. COThat still sounds like a data issue. Do you have multiple Departments within one Unit with the same name?

    3. COHello Marc, apologies... I am not getting duplicate departments rather I am getting assets belonging to a department in another unit. So it is cascading as it should but as there is for example a dishwasher in both unit 1 and unit 2 it shows up in the Assets list. It is only filtering on the departments in the last section.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
