Hi everyone

In my app I've got a form linked to a SharePoint list. This form contains a number of Y/N fields where if the user changes the value to Yes a previously hidden field will then display. The example below shows that if the user selects Yes for a load being carried then a text box field called Load Carried will appear:

If the toggle is left as No then the user never sees the Load Carried field. The code being used in the Visible property for the above field is simply tog_LoadCarried.Value

This works fine the first time a user opens the app and submits the form. However, if they then go back into another item or create a new item using the same form, the toggle controls in the form all change back to No but the corresponding text fields are still visible. If I change the toggle to Yes and then back to No they disappear. I'm using the ResetForm command when the form is being opened, whether that's in edit or new mode.

This is strange because I've used this method of controlling field visibility in forms and can't remember coming across this issue before. I'm not sure if something has changed?

I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me if they've come across this issue before, and whether it is something that used to work but now does the above as I'm doubting myself :-) The only workaround I can think of is to set the default value of each toggle as a variable and use that to reset the toggles every time the form is opened. However, there are quite a few toggle fields and I don't want to have to do this unless there's no other alternative.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
