I have created a datatype called "Corporate Type" this is a dropdownlist. I am using this for the member section of umbraco. I have to create another datatype now that is based on the Corporate Type. The user will select the Corporate Type and will then filter the sub type which I still need to create. Is the a way to get this done?
I don't know a build in possibility, but you can create your own datatype which contains own dropdowns where the one dropdown references the first one. But having one datatype referencing another one I don't think that this is possible.

Hi Guys
I have created a datatype called "Corporate Type" this is a dropdownlist. I am using this for the member section of umbraco. I have to create another datatype now that is based on the Corporate Type. The user will select the Corporate Type and will then filter the sub type which I still need to create. Is the a way to get this done?
Thanks and Regards

You should create your own datatype class with your own presentation control where you'll be able to add any logic you want.
