How to connect a ComboBox to a text box?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 27

Hi all, I am trying to connect a regular text box to display an item that is selected in a ComboBox from a database. I have very very basic knowledge of PowerApps and coding in general so I need like "how to for dummies" type response. 

 

The attached photo is what I have so far, I am trying to connect "Label2_69" to "ComboBox2" so whatever is selected in "ComboBox2" shows up automatically in "Label2_69".

 

Your help is greatly appreciated! 

Thank you!

    Hi @NahalB ,

     

    Try to add ComboBox2.Selected.Value to Label2_69 Text property.

     

    Let me know if it works for you or if you need any additional help!

    Hi @NahalB ,

     

    In this case, please, remove the "Value" from your expression and check if something appears in the autocomplete, like in the image below (in your case, you keep using ComboBox2).
