Populating Drop Down Lists that are Filtered from another Drop Down

Hello,


I'm executing a Load Method from a smartobject that is pointed to a SharePoint list. .  List #2 is a filtered drop down from List #1.  When I run the Load method, it populates #1 but not #2.  I was figuring that they were both trying to load at the same time (when form is initialized) and since there is no data, at that point, for list #2 to look at then it cannot retrieve the data.  I've tried to run a separate smartobject load in the rule, but it also will also not load the data in the secondary drop down.


If anyone has any pointers on this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I was finally able to figure this out by applying a condition that checked to see if drop down list #1 had data.  If it did, then execute the smartobject loading the secondary dropdown.
