Hello everyone,
I have a column named Keywords and the data type is choices, i choose combo box to display the column , the thing is i noticed that, in the search field of the combo box, i have to exactly type the keyword (1st word, 2nd word, 3rd word) and i realized its because the data type is choices not text and i have to change the data type from choices to text but i cannot directly change the data type in my SP list , i dont know why, i cant click save button .
To clarify :
Great, thank you for clarifying. It seems like you have two main concerns:
I want to change the data type of the "Keywords" column in my SP list from "choices" to "text," but im facing an issue where i can't click the save button to make this change.
i've noticed that when I use a combo box to display the "Keywords" column, I need to type the keywords exactly due to the data type, and i'd like to find a solution for this.
Thank you !
Hi,
Sorry for your troubles.
2 things.
1. Your search is acting weird, it should not require you to type it like that
However, 2, you cannot change the data type. You must delete the column and recreate it.
