Posted on by

Hello all,

 

Yesterday i tried created and published my customized form and everything worked fine. later today i came and would like to add more filed into editform, again i tried click on customize form of my list. Then i saw all the fields which contains dropdown values (Example 5 fields) of that list showing an error message " The data source suppied to that fuction is invalid".

Choices(listname.'Field Name') - it's there.

In data:

dispaly fields: []

Searchfields: []

items: Choices(listname.'Field Name')

 

i don't know why disply fileds and search fields like above. when i tried to remove the field and add again it's working. but everytime am not sure?

    Hi @Saan ,

     

    Did you make sure that the connection inside the app is connected correctly? Also, by default, the formulas in DisplayFields and SeachFields property should be:

    ["Value"]

    Please check if you have customized anything in the dropdown controls that makes this error shown.

     

    Regards,

    Hello thanks for the response!!!

     

    somehow found the solution. it is because i created a new field in list and tried open the customized form from list then it's showing in that way. then we need to go to datasounce and refresh it. it's working with out removing the fileds.

     

    Thank you,

    Saan
