Urgent!!!!!!!!!! dependent picklist values

Hi Guys,

 

I have 2 picklists on Account. One is "Industry" -- controlling field, the other is "Sector" -- dependent field.

For example,

 

When I choose "IT" for Industry, the Sector will show Database, CRM sys, NetWork etc.

When I choose "Education" for Industry, the Sector will show something .....

all those above are set up in field definition in Setup.

 

I wonder whether there is a way to get their relationship. I mean I hope Apex can help  show which picklist value in industry controlls which values in Sector.

 

 

Thanks

 

Any idea will be goooooooooooooooooooood!!

You would have to use picklist.js manuplation for Dependency or you can use hardcord values

Although Apex cannot show dependent picklists that are set up in the point-and-click Force.com Builder, you can programmatically recreate this in Apex code, referencing a custom object.  There is sample code in the developer.force.com library.
