How we built this app

We have a table called Person and a table called Form. Form has three ref-type columns to the Person table. We use the following valid_if formulas to sort the values that appear in the dropdown menus: 1. ORDERBY(Person[Key], [First Name]) 2. ORDERBY(Person[Key], [Last Name]) 3. ORDERBY(Person[Key], [First Name], TRUE) 4. ORDERBY(Person[Key], RANDBETWEEN(0, 10000)) The last formula will sort the dropdown in random order every time the form is opened.
