hi Expert

I have following scenario

now in power apps the value i have two drop down

1. If Status is changed to closed than the request status will be pending

2. If Status is already closed and request status is approved than only submit form

3. If Requested status is rejected than when you change the status to close than new request status will be pending

for details see the table below

Step	Used Case Scenario	Current Status	New Status	Current Request Status	New Request Status
1	Initial Closure Request	Open	Closed	Open	Pending
2	Initial Closure Approved	Closed	closed	Pending	Approved
3	If you edit approved Case	Closed	Closed	Approved	Approved
4	Initial closure rejected	Closed	Open	Pending	Rejected
5	Initial Closure Resubmitted	Open	Closed	Rejected	Pending
6	Resubmission of Closure Approved	Closed	closed	Pending	Approved
7	If edit existing Case excluding closure request	Open	Open	Open	Open

i was trying to store the value of the request status to the onchange property of Status and trying to set the defauslected item of the request status to default. lost in this logic only

but got this error

Hi @Vedant28,

Firstly, can you please remember to post your code in Text - saves re-typing here. The fundamental issue however is that Set() is used to initiate/update a Variable, not to change the content of a control. You need to set a Variable (use a Context Variable) to the value you want (example)
UpdateContext({varStatus: "Open"})

and then the DefaultSelectedItems of the Combo Box
{Value: varStatus}
