* Hi all, I couldn't find an answer to this on the old questions;
if there
is already an answer just point me there.
I have a many-to-many relation:
| LINKS |------ N -----< about >------ M -----| BRANDS |
In database is implemented as
-table_links
------ id_r_about
- table_brands
----- name
----- id_r_about
- table_r_about
----- id_r_about
----- id_links
----- id_brand
----- desc
----- site
or
| LINKS | N----------1 | r_about | 1-----------N | BRANDS |
In glom I would like to show a form for the LINKS table with a combo
with the names of the brands (table_brands.name). In background glom
while showing the brand's name -taken from the BRANDS table- should
insert the new id_r_about, while creating a new row in table_r_about
with the selected brand's id and the link's id currently in edit.
That is what glom SHOULD do, but as I guess this is a feature not yet
available, so I did a
WORKAROUND.
When showing the form for LINKS a combo is displayed with
table_r_about.id_r_about and table_r_about.desc: where
table_r_about.desc is table_brands.name.
table_r_about has to be properly set.
My question is:
is there a method to automatically copy table_brands.name in
table_r_about.desc in the form for adding a new table_r_about's row? Now
I'm copying it by hand but it is boring and error prone.
Thanks in advance
