Resetting - Text input

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by Alfle15

I am using a "Edit Form" to request users to filled up the text input.

I have a button named Add, that uses the collect function to add all text input into a sharepoint (excel) file.

In the current scenario, after the user have key in all the text input and press the add button, the following happens:

1) The text inputs are all collected and added into the SharePoint (excel).

2) The text inputs field are still filled.

Question : is there any way for the text input fields to be resetted or cleared after pressing the add button?

I understand that i can use another button to do the reset, however, i was wondering if the clearing of the fills can be done with the same add button?

Meaning to say, once the user press the add button, the fields are collected into the sharepoint file and the text input fields are cleared ready for the next input.

Hi @Alfle15 , You can use the Reset(ControlName). In your case you can rest the textInput control.

Set the reset property on all your text inputs to a variable. Example: Clear_Inputs

On your button at the end of the onselect property add in the following code:
Set(Clear_Inputs, false);
Set(Clear_Inputs, true)

This will reset all your input text boxes

Hi @Alfle15,

Because you said it was an Edit form, you can just use the formula:
NewForm(Form Name);
as the last formula in the OnSelect property of your button.

Please tick Accept as solution if the answer is useful.
