How to add data in a field (with datatype of data) based on the value of another field

1
Hello all,

I would like to add some data in a field based based on the value of another field.

For example the idea is like if a user selects country 'France', the capital field should automatically be filled with 'Paris'.
I tried to achieve that with a custom script but nothing. I would like suggestions on what should be the data type for those fields and the condition for the custom script because there will be more than one country.

Thank you much for your help.

Regards,
Kat.

Your query is very confusing. Your country selection field should be of type "Select" and capital "Data"

What is the custom script you tried?

Hi Rushabh,

Thanks for your reply.

I tried a script like this one:

cur_frm.cscript.custom_validate = function(doc){

        if (doc.country = 'France'){
                doc.cap_city = 'Paris')
        }
}

But I don't get the expected result. And to clarify a bit the question, I would say if we are dealing with 5 countries, how should the condition be written? 

Regards.
