Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get a dropdown to be "pre-selected" when an app starts based on a "param" in the URL. I want to set the "Category" dropdown in my app using the param in the URL cat=xxxxx (text)
I've tried to use If(!IsEmpty(Value(Param("cat"))),LookUp(Choices('IT Helpdesk Knowledgebase'.Category),Value = Value(Param("cat")))) however I get the error "Expected Text value."
Any ideas?? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you are providing a record for the Default of a dropdown control...it needs to be text.
From what I see, all the lookup is a waste in this case. You simply need to set the Default property of the Dropdown to: Param("cat")
I hope this is helpful for you.
