Mulitple choice

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 202

I added a new column to the SharePoint list. I added a new field to the PowerApp, and removed the first one. It is a multiple choice field, as I replaced the one, which wasn't multi choice. In the formula I replaced Choice(ListOnSharePoint.'Column1')  with Choice(ListOnSharePoint.'Column2'), but I have an error on the Edit Screen.  It doesn't give me any errors on Detail Screen. Im not quite sure why?

    You should post a screenshot of the error message so the forum can see it.

    Somehow the error disappeared. I have Another issue. In the  Gallery when I replaced the 1st column with the second one  Column2 it errored out and all data disappeared.

     

    Formula before: ThisItem.'Column1'.Value

    After: ThisItem.'Column2'.Value

    Error message: This formula uses scope, which is not presently supported for evaluation.

    Does it mean that multiple choice field doesn't like ".Value". This is the only option I get.

    What type of control are you putting that code in?  If its a label try using the CONCAT function.

    Concat(ThisItem.'Column2',Value&" ")

    @mdevaney  Thanks for your reply. This formula fixed the issue Concat(ThisItem.'Column2'.Value, Concatenate(PlainText(Value),", "))

     

    Does anybody know how could I replace this formula  from the Gallery: 'Column1'.Value in AreaComboBox.SelectedItems.Value    so it represents Column2? It is a part of the long formula, which includes the values from another fields?

    Suggest you post the 2nd question as a separate and new post to give higher visibility.

    Hi @batmanMon

    Do you want to know how to modify ComboBox.SelectedItems.Value?

    Could you tell me 

    1)what does the combo box use for? do you use it to choose value of column2?

    2)the formula of this combo box's Items?

    3)where do you want to use  ComboBox.SelectedItems.Value? If you could show me more details about this long formula, it will be better.

    I assume that the combo box's Items is 

    Choices(ListOnSharePoint.'Column2')

    If you want to use ComboBox.SelectedItems.Value as a text, try this formula:

    Concat(ComboBox.SelectedItems,Value&",")

    If you want to use  ComboBox.SelectedItems.Value as a table, try this formula:

    ComboBox.SelectedItems.Value
