    Hello Flashkitters,

    I do have a dropdown combo box menu with hundreds of
    options.

    When users will choose an option, three dynamic text boxes
    will show three diferent values.

    I was thinking to assign each dropdown option three text
    variables to be shown in the dynamic text boxes.

    The question is...Is there any better/faster way to
    achieve this than manually assigning values to each
    dropdown option?

    I do have all the values in an Excel document, is there any
    way to get the data directly from the Excel doc?

    Thanks in Advance

    export the data from excel as a csv and import it into a mysql database then pull the values out with some php or asp scripting hope this helps

    Hi nubz, thanks for your fast answer
    Do you know of any good tutorial about this?
    I am afraid I am too newbie in ASP/PHP to proceed.

    Thanks I truly appreciate your response.
