Sync between two controls - Please help.. Fast response is appriciated !!

Question

Hi,
I simply wish to sync two controls in the following way:
1. I have Control A displaying three values (like a combo box) which
cannot be changed by the user, for example: X, Y, Z
2. The second control, Control B, has defualt value, say 100, however
the user can change its value when the application is operated
3. The user first select Control A value then he set Control B value,
for example for Control A's value X he sets Control B's value to 150,
for Control's A value Y he assigns Control's B value to 250 and for
Control's A value Z he assigns 450
The problem starts when i switch between Control A's values (states),
the values of Control B were not kept
Hope i explained it ok..
Can someone please assist me???
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to do
If you want Control B to be automatically set to a value that depending on Control A's state, you can use a local variable and a LUT (look up table) in wich you asign a Control B's value for each Control A's state.
Or it's even easier with a combo box since you can use it as a LUT by disabling "Values match labels"
Check example attached.
Hope this helps
