Finding Individual ComboBox Value in Table

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
I'm trying to have a combo box be referenced in a label to check if it the value from the dropdown is in the table and display as "In List"
 
current code for label:
 
If(CountIf('Energy Device Record','Manufacturer Model'= ComboBox2_3.SelectedItems)>0,"In list",If(IsBlank(ComboBox2_3.Selected),"Racking Missing","Not in List"))
 
the error comes in that the combo box is incompatible for comparision.
 
Is there any way around this? or to convert the combobox into text?

    Is Manufacturer Model a Choice field?
    What are the items that the combobox is bound to?
     
    Depending on the items property you could get 
    'Manufacturer Model'.Value = ComboBox2_3.Selected.Value
     
    or 
     
    'Manufacturer Model'.Value = ComboBox2_3.Selected.columnname - where columnname is the column name

    "Is this SharePoint or Dataverse?
    Are you trying to count all the records where a choice or lookup value is equal to Manufacturer Model and something else? "
     
    'Manufacturer Model'= ComboBox2_3.Selected.Value does not work, says that "Value' is not recognized
     
    This is in Sharepoint
     
    I'm trying to see if the selection from the combobox, is a value in the 'Manufacturer Model' column of 'Energy Device Record'.

    'Manufacturer Model'= ComboBox2_3.SelectedItems 
    would be more like
     
    'Manufacturer Model'= ComboBox2_3.Selected.Value
    but is this what you really want to do?

    Unable to see the complete formula.

    Is this SharePoint or Dataverse?
    Are you trying to count all the records where a choice or lookup value is equal to the value in column 'Manufacturer Model' and something else?
