Drop bown lists
 
I'm trying to create a combo box where the list will vary
based upon a state that is chosen. The state is
determined by a different combo box. Currently, I have a
column setup as my list that will show a blank line for an
invalid selection. However, this means I have 100+ blanks
lines in my dropdown list. I want to get rid of the blank
lines and have tried checking the ignore blanks box in the
validation screen. Ay help would be appreciated.

Why not just answer it again?

Anyway

What might work is if you sort the list everytime you
enter a new record, in order to move the empty cells to
the bottom.
