    Hi, is there a way to set a condition, that if a responder chooses a specific option in one question, an answer of a different question is automatically selected?

    For example:

    question 1: What kind of registration? A. With prizes B. without prizes

    question 2: What should be included in your package? A. prizes B. no prizes

    If a responder chooses A (with prizes) as the answer to question 1, the answer to question 2 should automatically also be A. And, if they switch the answer of question 2 to B, then the answer to question 1 should also switch to B.

    Is that possible to do?

    Hi cchfform,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Yes, it’s possible to pass the selected answer from one question to another field based on the user's choice. You can achieve this using Update/Calculate Field condition to create a dynamic rule that inserts the selected value into another field automatically. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Settings tab in the orange navigation bar and select the Conditions tab on the left side menu.
    2. Select the Update/Calculate Field option in the Condition Menu. Is it possible to connect two answer in two different questions? Image 1 Screenshot 50
