 * Is it possible to have a drop down field with a few choices, and then based on
   the selection, have another drop down with choices unique to the selection?

 * Dear jmessinger,
 * You cannot have multi-selection drop-down. But you can have a multiple choice
   option and then use conditional fields and display the results based on the selection(
   the second question appears based on the answer of the first one).

 * Dear user,
 * Do the following: create single-choice field. Then create the stated different
   fields. Go to Conditional fields section within the Form Options menu. Here connected
   the field answers with the corresponding field using if question1 is x, then 
   show question2, if question1 is y, then show question3. Thank you.
