Autopopulate from SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 95

Hello,

 

Please refer to the screenshot below. I need the Property Name field to autopopulate when a user inputs the associated number in the FHA Number field. Once a user inputs the FHA Number, a linked SharePoint list (called A-MAP) will pull the property name based on the corresponding FHA Number.  Can anyone assist me with this? I've already linked the SharePoint list, but I cannot figure out how to make the Property Name field autopopulate with the data.  Thank you!

    Hi @k_cain ,

    Set the Default property of the property name control to:

    LookUp('A-MAP','FHA Number'=TextInputYourFHANumb0erControl.Text,'Property Name')

     

    Hope it helps !

    @k_cain 

    Set the Default property of the Property Name (assuming this is a Text Input control - if not, then set the Text property) to the following:

    LookUp(A-Map, 'FHA Number' = Value(yourFHATextInputControlName.Text), 'Property Name')

     

    Replace your actual names into the above and you should get what you want.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    Hi @k_cain ,

    Assuming that

    • 'FHA Number' field and 'Property Name' field are both the the list 'A-MAP' and 'FHA Number' is a Text value,  calling your Text Box txtFHANo in the below, the Default of the Property Name box would be 
    LookUp(
     'A-MAP',
     'FHA Number' = txtFHANo.Text
    ).'Property Name'

    I tried that, but I'm getting an error message saying there's an incompatible type.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    @k_cain 

    Is 'FHA Number' defined as a text column or numeric column in your list?

    If it is text, then change your formula to:

    LookUp('A-Map', 'FHA Number'='FHA Number_Input'.Text, 'Property Name')

    Randy,

     

    No luck with that either.  Please see the two screenshots below, which includes a screenshot of the SharePoint list column types from which the inputted FHA Number and Property Name will be pulled.  They are both listed as "Single line of text."

    @k_cain 

    Your formula is wrong.  Please use the following:

    LookUp('A-Map', 'FHA Number'='FHA Number_Input'.Text, 'Property Name')

     

    You have an extra paren in yours.
