Urgent - Combo box - concat/join another field value

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 802

Hi,

 

I have a Canvas App whereby I am using a combobox which has Items of 

 

Sort(AddColumns('DV_Table_Name',
 "ModifiedOnFormatted",
 Text('Modified On', "dd-mm-yyyy")),
 'Modified On', Descending)

 

and DisplayFields of

 

["new_companyname","ModifiedOnFormatted"]

 

This creates the combobox with the name of the Company first, and the ModifiedOn date next.

 

What I want is to add another column's value to the "end" of "new_companyname" - this other column's value is a reference number. How can I do this so that, in the combobox, it would display    

 

Company Name   /    Reference Number

ModifiedOn date

 

for each?

 

Many thanks, 

K.

    I was thinking we would need another AddColumns but does this work?  (Change reference_number to your column name)

    Sort(AddColumns('DV_Table_Name',
     "ModifiedOnFormatted",
     Text('Modified On', "dd-mm-yyyy"),
     "ModifiedNewCompanyName",
     new_companyname & " / " & reference_number),
    'Modified On', Descending)

    Then change display fields to 

    ["ModifiedNewCompanyName","ModifiedOnFormatted"]
