Clearing combobox when clicking

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hey!

Is it possible to clear the selected item from a combobox, when clicking with the cursor on the combobox?

Or is it necessary to have a onselect button function that can reset the combobox to the default value = ""

Thanks!

    Option 1
    Insert a Button and on its onselect put this:
    Set(ClearCombo," ")
    Then in the Default of the Combobox put : ClearCombo

    Option 2
    Insert a button and on the Onselect put this formula: Reset(YourComboboxName)

    Hi @eka24,

    I don't wish to have button in order to clear the combobox. I want the same capabilities as from many web forms, which clears the text when you click on a previously filled field in form.

    Is that possible?
