Hi every one I am trying to add an email validation Data Card in PowerApps and I am using almost the same code that is in this solution. But for some reason it shows an error,

"EmailCompro:text = There is an error in this formula. Please review it and run it again."

The code used is:

If(
 IsMatch(
 DataCardValue3.Text,
 "^([a-zA-Z0-9_.-])+@(([a-zA-Z0-9-])+.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$"
 ),
 Check,
 Icon.Warning
)

And the error stars at the , symbol with this message:

Unexpected characters. The formula contains "Error" where "ParenClose" was expected.

Unexpected characters. Characters are used in the formula unexpectedly.

Any help will be appreciated

Hi @949184_soy ,

I noticed you wrote the formula in the wrong attribute (Onselect).

Hi thank you for you help, but despite of adding the code to the Icon property I still got this error after the ,:

Unexpected characters. The formula contains "Error" where "ParenClose" was expected.
Unexpected characters. Characters are used in the formula unexpectedly.

and for some reason the code is not recognized, I mean the Regex expression should be red colored, the Check command should be blue.

I am pretty I am missing something

Cheers

Hi @949184_soy ,

Some regions use semicolons instead of commas in formulas.
