What is the difference between
Value(DataCardValue.Text)
and
DataCardValue.Text
?
Hi,
Value() is a function to convert text into number, so
is a number and
is a text.
I hope it helps 🙂
The thing that confused me is if I enter:
DataCardValue.Text * 5
into an update field and then I enter the value "5" in the box when updating the field. It will write a value of 25 to the data source. So if typing:
returns a "text" why does it behave as an integer too since it can be multiplied?
Because it automatically convert into a number when it finds a math opetarion
