Hi everyone, I'm back with another probably noobish question, so sorry in advance!How can I populate a dropdown with a certain column from a SharePoint list? Would it be possible for me to then populate text inputs with the data from that selection to allow for editing? If so, how?
@GenericoName Could you be more specific. What is the data type of this column in SP? Is this comboboc inside an Edit Form?
It's just a normal app, not a form. All columns in the SP list are set as 'Single line of text'.
@GenericoName Could you share your screen and also some more info on the column you want to show in the dropdown and what values you want to be shown in the other TextFields based on the selection in the drop down.
Here you go. I want to have a dropdown populated with the users in the Name column. I want to populate these blank inputs with the rest of the information for the selected Name in the SharePoint List.
@GenericoName
The text inputs don't have a text property, only default. The labels have a text property but, even then, it fails to recognise ctxSelectedRecord.
Sorry @CNT, forgot to tag again. I'm used to reply functions automatically tagging.
@GenericoName Could you show me the code of how and where you are setting ctxSelectedRecord
Posted it in response to your last post, just forgot to tag you 😛Is there anything else in particular that I should grab?
@CNT Arrrrgh, I did it again. So sorry!
