Ok, thank you. I'm waiting for scripting possibilities ... Labeling is not a solution for me, because Field2 depends on Field1 only when it has "A". If Field1 has different values, then Field2 must remain empty and still writeable.

You can do this by adding value labels to Field1:

label for "A" is "K" etc.

Then, on the Extended tab, choose to copy the label to Field2 Make Field2 NoEnter

Scripting is not yet implemented, but is coming. This will allow much greater flexibility.

Is there a chance to have an automatic value in a field depending on the entered value in another field, i.e:

Field_1 (entered by user): "A" Field_2 (automatically filled with "K", when user has entered "A" in Field_1): "K"

I could not find a possibility to realise this by JUMPS or in the EXTENDED register card.
