Hey.

I have an application in which I would like to show the comment history, so I set the column as multitext with the ability to append changes to the existing text.

The problem is that if I want to display these comments in the power app, it only shows the first entries.

In which control should I display this kind of data?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @ShockWave21,

For the previous comment history, we are unable to recover and get it, for the following comment, we could use an expression to append the previous comment with the current comment.

1). You should capture which record you want to update the comment, and add a TextInput to input your new comment.

2). Add a save button and set OnSelect as below:

Patch(Data,LookUp(Data,ID=xxx),{Comment:LookUp(Data,ID=xxx).Comment&","&TextInput1.Text})

3). To displayt the comment historySet the Default property of a TextInput or Text property of a Label as eblow:

LookUp(Data,ID=xxx).Comment
