conditions and variables

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I have a lot of conditions in my app. I was wondering if I could use variables so I don’t get confused at the end.

Instead of doing : If ( ComboBox.Selected.Value= « Pomme » && ComboBox.Selected.Value= « Poire » ; « oui » ; « non » ) for each screen and each control.

I was wondering if I could create a variable when the user click on the button, so on the other screens, I don’t have to repeat the formula but only var1, var2, etc.

I succeed on creating a variable. It says that it’s a boolean and it’s empty.

However, I have some issues with the textbox because it should return « yes », as I selected « Pomme » and « Poire ».

Is it the best way to do so ?

Thank you

Hi @Anonymous , If I understood your requirement then the code should be
If(ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "Pomme" And ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "Fraise", Set(var1,true))
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope this helps.

Hi.
I have another issue. This is the button's code :
If(
ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "poire" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "Figue";
Set(
variable2;
true
);
If(
ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "pomme" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "fraise";
Set(
variable3;
true
)
)
)
The issue is, when I select "pomme" and "fraise", it doesn't display "pomme-fraise" in the textbox. It's stuck on "poire-Figue" and I don't know why. Can you help me please ?

HI @Anonymous , You need to use commas not semi-colon. Please try below code:
If( ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "poire" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "Figue", Set(variable2,true), ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "pomme" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "fraise", Set(variable3,true) )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope this helps.

Hi,
I use semi colons because commas don't seem to work in France... I've always used semi colons and everything was fine. I don't think that the problem is there.

It seems like when I reload the page, it works, whether I select "pomme" / "fraise" or "poire"/"figue". But when I select for a third time, it doesn't work.

Hi @Anonymous , You need to have that code on some button. Add button and then use below code:
If( ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "poire" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "Figue", Set(variable2,true), ComboBox1.Selected.Value = "pomme" && ComboBox2.Selected.Value = "fraise", Set(variable3,true) )
