Switch case works on all but one

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by tambo 7

Hi All,

 

I've implemented a switch case with a MS Form as the source using a dropdown list where user has to select one option from:

 

- Part-Time

- Fixed Term

- Permanent 

 

The first two (Part-Time and Fixed Term) work fine and it will generate the relevant word document, but when it comes to Permanent, the switch defaults to the default case. 

 

I've amended the switch to run on the first MS Form in case it was that and checked spelling but nothing. Can anyone advise please? Thanks

    Hi @tambo there is a space issue hence it is not matching.

    Check out my output (It happened with me as well even my case was going in default what I did was the output coming in switch is "Permanent(Space bar)" which doesn't matches your "Permanent" in your case hence put "Permanent(Space bar)")
