Attribute - size different options different products

Hello,

I'm a little bit confused about attributes. I did read this tutorial https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=57 but it's still magic to me. I would like to have an simple drop down menu related to a specific size. For example, I have a product A that will be available in following sizes (no other options, just a size, same weight same shipping)

product A Standard size 1/4 price listed as $25 (this is listed on product detail page)

Additional sizes listed as a dropdown menu

Drop down options:

• size 3/8 $30
• size 1/2 $35
• size 7/8 $37

Product B Standard size 5mm price listed $25 (this is listed on product detail page)

Additional sizes listed as a dropdown menu

Drop down options:

• size 6mm $30
• size 7mm $35
• size 8mm $37

Can anyone explain an easy way to accomplish what I'm looking for?

Thanks

Make sure that you mark the Attribute for the Select Thread Size as:
Default: YES
Display Only: YES

so the customer cannot pick that selection and must make a valid selection ...

ok, thanks
