  Hi,

  Here is a sample which I use:

  function OnLoad() {
      var optionsetControl = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("brd_statusreason");
      var options = optionsetControl.getAttribute().getOptions();
      var type = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("brd_status").getValue();
      var reason = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("brd_statusreason").getValue();
          // 'Active' is selected
          if (type == 172100000) {
              optionsetControl.clearOptions(); 
              for (var i = 0; i < options.length - 1; i++) {
                  if (i == 0 || i == 1 || i == 2) {
                      optionsetControl.addOption(options[i]);
                  }
              }
          }
          // 'Resolved' is selected
          else if (type == 172100001) {
              optionsetControl.clearOptions();
              for (var i = 0; i < options.length - 1; i++) {
                  if (i == 3 || i == 4) {
                      optionsetControl.addOption(options[i]);
                  }
  
              }
          }
          // 'Cancelled' is selected
          else if (type == 172100002) {
              optionsetControl.clearOptions();
              optionsetControl.addOption(options[5]);
          }
  Xrm.Page.getAttribute("brd_statusreason").setValue(reason);
   }
  

  
  

  Remember that you have to set separate functions for onload and onchage events. For the onload you have to save the value of the field to set it at the end of the function (as in above sample). For onchange it is not needed to save the field value and set it at the end.
