I have two form components: a dropdown box and a radio button. I'm trying to get the radio button to populate based off of what I choose from the dropdown box above it. So far, this is my best attempt at a MEL expression:
{If DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE ==
"Right sacroiliac joint injection under fluoroscopy" THEN DOCUMENT.SI_JOINT_S_ == "right" else DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE == "Left sacroiliac joint under fluoroscopy" THEN DOCUMENT.SI_JOINTS_S_ == "left" else DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE == "Bilateral sacroiliac joint under fluoroscopy" THEN DOCUMENT.SI_JOINTS_S_ == "both" else "" endif endif endif}
?
?
What am I doing wrong? Both items are based off of document variables. Would I have to make one an obs term for the expression to work? I'm convinced that there is a way to make this happen, I just need some help getting there.
Thanks,
R.

single '=' is for assignment, double '==' is for comparison
also you need additional 'if's after each else
{If DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE == "Right sacroiliac joint injection under fluoroscopy" THEN
DOCUMENT.SI_JOINT_S_ = "right"
else if DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE == "Left sacroiliac joint under fluoroscopy" THEN
DOCUMENT.SI_JOINTS_S_ = "left"
else if DOCUMENT.PROCEDURE == "Bilateral sacroiliac joint under fluoroscopy" THEN
DOCUMENT.SI_JOINTS_S_ = "both"
else ""
endif endif endif}

Yep. That did it. Thanks so much!
This is my first foray into programming, so I'm still trying to get my bearings.
