I'm trying to set a variable on the opening of a form, the data is coming from a selected gallery item, this what I'm trying;

Set(varDays,If(gallery1.Selected.Number_Days.Value="1",1,2);

I get a incompatible comparison error;

Hi @CiaranCampbell,

Is this Number_Days a Choice column allowing multi select or not?

If so, try modify as below:

Set(varDays,If("1" in Concat(gallery1.Selected.Number_Days.Value,Value,","),1,2))
