Can someone help? Thanks! ---

> # Work backwards. ## 1. In Sheet 1, have all people with their category | Person | Category | | --- | --- | | Harry Gwin | Personal Trainer | | Miss Smith | Teacher | ## 2. In Sheet 2, have all people categories with their type: | Category | Type | | --- | --- | | Teacher | Education | | Principal | Education | | Personal Trainer | Fitness | | Coach | Fitness | ## 3. In Sheet 3, have all types: | Type | | --- | | Education | | Fitness | ## 4. In Glide, make multiple relations from each parent sheet to the child - Sheet 3 Type \> Sheet 2 Type - Sheet 2 Category \> Sheet 1 Category ## 5. In Glide, create a new tab that displays Sheet 3 (as a list, tiles, cards, etc.) ## 6. In the list details view, add an inline list to the relation you created (repeat this step twice in your case as you have two relations across 3 sheets) ---

In Sheet 3, create a multiple relation that matches Type with Sheet 2 Type In Sheet 2, create a multiple relation that matches Sheet 2 Category with Sheet 1 Category. Be sure that the tab you’re displaying in the app is pointing to Sheet 3 (which only contains the 2 Types, Education and Fitness). Select “List” as the tab style. You should see those 2 types in a short list. Click on one of them. Add an inline list component (you can delete anything else). Under the source setting, be sure you choose the relation (gray icon) not the sheet (green icon). Example: ![Screen Shot 2020-04-27 at 11.37.39 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/0/04d8adefd1f8dee1ceda69df56c102cb927fc69d.png) You should now see the People Categories (Teacher, Personal Trainer, etc.) Repeat the inline list creation to generate a list of people in the next screen. ---
