    Hi @Rubio_Damien ,

    Could you provide more information(better with screenshots) about below questions for helping us better understand your issue?

    1. Can your dropdown shows selections correctly?

    2. What's the column type of your column using inside your code? Is it a Text column?

    3. What do you mean "library" in below picture? A SharePoint library? Or is it just a Gallery inside your app?

    I done a test on my side with your code, everything works fine. You can compare with my steps and check if there is any difference:

    1. My list called "list10" with a Text column called "Letter_B"

    2. Inside my app, I have a dropdown control called "Dropdown1":

    3. Here is my Gallery, displays correct record based on selection in dropdown.

    Hi @Rubio_Damien,

    Seems your column name is "EDU_1", try to remove '' outside your column name, just directly use this column in the formula, so try this formula:

    Filter(LAD_1; EDU_1=ddledu2.Selected.Result)

     

    If still not work, provide the screenshot of this column type from your SharePoint list(Is this a Text column?).

    Best regards,

    Allen
