Combobox Default Selected Item from TEXT column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

OK. So I have a COMBOBOX which is using Office365SearchUser.() as its ITEMS. I have successfully patched the items back to a standard TEXT BOX as I can't get a PERSON column to show the items in a dropdown in the Combobox. All works well apart from the only way I can get the default.selecteditems to work is to use 

 

Search(Office365Users.SearchUser(),ThisItem.CREWNAMETEXT,"DisplayName") for the Combobox. This also works fine apart from when the SP list is blank and instead of showing a blank it defaults to the first person's name in the Office365user list? I have tried changing the default value for the text column in the SP list to "" but still the default comes up with the first name in the user list. How can I make the default value blank until a user's name is patched to the column?

 

Many thanks.
