I have one CB that is the states. I have another that is options available. I want to establish a rule that says if you choose a state, the other CB will only populate options available in that state.

CB2= Metro1

Worked to build a code to reference but not working.

Can you provide more details about the method you fetch data and bind it to the comboboxes?

First you will need to know when the combo boxes Selection has changed. Based on the value, change the values of the second combobox.
