Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I want to change the color of the item when it is selected on the dropdown.

If it can be done with simple drop down, please suggest. If it has to be done by gallery please suggest all the steps in details.

Attachment is to provide exact scenario. 'Ontrack': Green . 'Off-Track' has to be made Red in color.

Regards,

Nandan

Please give a little more detail: what do you mean by "it won't work?" Did you receive any error message?

Your column must be named something different than "Value". Type this code section of code and see what comes up in the AutoComplete. Then choose the appropriate column

Dropdown1.Selected.

Thank you @mdevaney … There is no error message. But it wont work for the Red. Seems it is not getting through to the next line: "Off-Track, Red . I have altered the color to check, the first line : "On-Track", Green, is working but not the second part. 😞

Apology for my typo, I have provided proper opening and closing quotes. But the result is the same. Its working for the first part while for the second part it is not.

Anyway, I am grateful for your support till now.

Can you please share a screenshot of the code you wrote in the formula bar? I am not seeing the reason for the error...
