Behavior Function in a non-behavior property. Error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Trout19 395
I am wanting to change the value of a text Value but I keep getting this error messages:
1)Behavior Function in a non-behavior property. You can't use this property to change values elsewhere in the app
2)Unexpected characters. The formula contains 'Control' where 'Indent' is expected. 
 
 
Is there something i am missing or is there another way to do this.

    The Set()-function is used to initialize and change global variables. This can not be done from within a 'Value' property. What do you exactly want the value to be? If you want it to be 6 if FormversonValue1 is blank then it would be:
     
    If(IsBlank(FormversonValue1),6,Parent.Default)

    Hi Trout19 ,

    Try to update the button behavior and value of text property with below step, it might help 

    1) Button (OnSelect)
         If(IsBlank(FormversionValue1), Set(FormversionValue1, 0))

    2) Lable (Text property)
        If(IsBlank(FormversionValue1), Parent.Default, FormversionValue1)
