Update grid based on form value

[Shawn Smalley]

I've got a form and a grid on the same app, the grid has a datasource as follows:

On my form i have the N06ALLOY field value linked as Get Field Value for the 'Alloy' variable

the variable is just a simple declaration

But when i test the app, changing the value of N06ALLOY with the dropdown box does not update the grid. Do i need to initiate a refresh of the grid whenever the value of the form changes with a script somehow?

The vvIn_Virtual in the datasource will simply use the value of the supplied app variable; however, it's up to the application to tell the widget to refresh.

For example, I would have an app variable, let’s say I named it refreshMyGrid, with an expression that checks if the other app variable, Alloy, has a value. If it does, the expression returns true; otherwise, it returns false.

Then, I would link the app variable refreshMyGrid to the grid's General > Refresh
