How to display the current Choice value in a form?

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by WebPortal 2,295

My Dataverse table contains a choice column, values are "EN" or "PT".

For a given record in a form, in edit mode, I want to display the current choice value.

How to do that?

It's empty!

Form:
Datasource = DataverseTable
Item = tblSelectedItem

Datacard:
Default = ThisItem.Field

Combobox within Datacard:
DefaultSelectedItems = [Parent.Default]

    Hello, try using the following format in DefaultSelectedItems:

    {Value: ThisItem.Field}

     

    Or use a variable that holds the value of your field. To use the property correctly and display the value of a column of type Choice in DefaultSelectedItems, you can use:

    {Value: yourVariableForYourField}

    I hope I was able to help.
