I have a Datacard named "Second Approver" >> where i am showing or hidden it based on the bid amount, now i problem is that if the user set a bid amount to require second approver, and then the user specify less amount that does not require second approver, the data card will be hidden but its value will still be submitted, i tried to set this formula inside the Datacard Update property:-
 
 
but it did not work, and the value will still be submitted regardless if the data card is visible or not when submitting the form.. any advice?

    Thanks for the reply, I tried using your formula, but still the same issue, the value will not be cleared incase the data card is not visible.

    Thanks for trying,
     
    Can u try this instead:
     
    If(Not(SecondApprover_DataCard.Visible), Reset(DataCardValue55))
     
     
    You might need to rename to your needs.

    Thanks, but under which property i need t add this formula:-
     
    If(Not(SecondApprover_DataCard.Visible), Reset(DataCardValue55))
     
    ??


    Also in general, when you do a Reset() it just reset the original value and will not clear it if it is already have value...


    Thanks
