Good afternnon all. I have a table taht has a list of building systems;

Building SystemsDescription
ASUBSTRUCTURE
A10Foundations
A20Slab-on-Grade
BSHELL
B10Superstructure
B20Exterior Enclosures
B30Roofing
CINTERIORS

 

The Data looks something like this;

 

Op CenterElement No.Building #Work Description
8650A10104Repair damage precast foundation
8650A10104Install joint sealant in precast foundation joints
8650A1010EProvide adequate foundation
8650A1010Hot StickProvide adequate foundation
8650A10202Replace Joint Sealant in floor control joints
8650B1010EInstall new concrete slab
8650B20101Clean and repoint brick mortar joint
8650B20101Replace siding between windows

 

What I'm trying to do, is create a slicer with Building Systems as drop downs. So if I select B10 or preferably SHELL, I will get all B10's including B1010, B1020, B1030 and so on.

 

Any help wouold be greatly appreciated 🙂

Thanks!
