I am working on a database application and I have these columns Roll No.; Student Name: Parent Name.
I have a **unique numeric value of Roll No**. for each of the record and I want to implement an **auto-fill** feature for as the user enters the Roll No. for the student, it auto fills the related value in the Student Name and Parent Name fields… How can I do that?

Is all this happening inside a form screen, or do you just have some input components on a details screen?
Either way, you’ll need to write the entered Roll No. to a user specific column. You can then use the entered value to build a relation to whichever table holds the other two values, and fetch them via lookup columns.
If this is being done inside a native form screen, user specific columns cannot be used and so you would need to switch to a [custom form](https://community.glideapps.com/t/how-do-i-create-a-custom-form/25014).

This is supposed to be done on a form screen, I will try this out. Thanks for your help. 😊
