Removing an operator from a DataCard Value

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I have a Data Card field which asks users to enter "Efficiency in Percentage" as a number value.

And the field should not have a "%" in its value.

Some users enter number along with %

Eg: 90% instead of 90.This converts the value into a decimal - 0.9

So help me to find a way to find and remove the % operator from the data card when the user clicks submit button

    A work around would be highlighting the text box fill color:

    If(
    IsMatch(TextInput4.Text, "%",Contains),Red,White)
     
    Or you can also use the DisplayMode of the Save button:
    If(
    IsMatch(TextInput4.Text, "%",Contains),Disabled,Edit)
     
    Or Notification on the Save Button:
    If(
    IsMatch(TextInput4.Text, "%",Contains),Notify("Please Remove the % sign"),SubmitForm(FormName))
