hi, Search two tables with one textinput box

Posted on by ColinM 26

Hi, 

 

I have a gallery that displays information from one table, PurchaseOrder Table, with labels inside each gallery item to look up information about the vendor on a VendorInformationTable.  The two tables are linked with a VendorID field. 

 

How can I seach/filter both tables for values in a TextInput box?  

ei:  Allow the user to enter the company name, the invoice value or the PO# to return hits in the gallery.

    Hi @ColinM 

     

    Instead of adding the lookup function on individual labels, you can also create a column using AddColumns function and then use it.

     

    Expression: Search(AddColumns(PurchaseOrder, "VendorTableCustColumn",LookUp(VendorInformationTable, VendorID = ID).ColumntoFetch), TextInput1.Text, "Column1","Column2", "VandorTableCustColumn")

     

    Hope this Helps!
