Hi all,
Just like the title says, I am wondering if it is possible to type text into a combo box and submit the text as if it was in a text input. I have an app with a combo box that displays the tasks for engineering projects, but some users would like to submit tasks that are not in our system. (We use power query to populate Dataverse tables with the task info) Would it be possible to have them type a new item into the combo box and submit it?
I get this error when submitting my form, it just uses a simple command in OnSelect:
SubmitForm(Form3); Notify("Hours Submitted", Success, 3000); NewForm(Form3)
No error when I select an item from the Combo box.
When a task is selected
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Hi @Aurora ,
It is not yet available. But there is a workaround that I used in one of my use cases.
Use a text field instead to get the free text. ( Example:- lets say you are adding a new project which is not yet there in your drop-down).
Check if the text field is not blank, then consider the text field text while updating or creating the record.
In Parallel update the master table which contains the project names with this new name. It will be a one-time entry and other users can use it if required.
Please give me a Thumbs up if I answered your question and mark it as a solution to help others.
Thanks
