Posted on by wonka1234 909 Super User 2024 Season 1

hi all,

 

Say I have a datacardvalue of "Louis Stevens" ? How can I get their email?

 

Lets say I have datacardvalue24 with this in its default -

 

LookUp([@'MASTER LIST'],'Job Title' = DataCardValue32_1.Selected.Value,'Attester')
 
which populates the name "Louis Steven".
 
Say I have text label, how can I get Louis' email ? ie Louis.Stevens@company.com.

    Hi @wonka1234 

     

    Assuming you have a text label (Label1), set its Text property to:

     

    LookUp(EMPLOYEE_LIST, Name = DataCardValue24.Text).Email

    (Or)

    LookUp(EMPLOYEE_LIST, Name = DataCardValue24.Text, Email)

     

    You might want to add some error handling to manage cases where the name is not found in the EMPLOYEE_LIST.

     

    IfError(
    LookUp(EMPLOYEE_LIST, Name = DataCardValue24.Text, Email),
    "Email not found"
    )

     

    Thanks!
