creating a collection from a combobox duplicating entries

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 270

hi all,

 

I have a combobox i am trying to add to a collection, for some reason it's duplicating the entry. I have 2 entries currently selected.

 

as you can see below the combobox can find 2 different entries.

2 different entries but when i run the collection

 

collection2.png

data is duplicated instead of 2 unique entries.

 

i know .selecteditems holds this info already but i need this in a collection for other purposes.

 

can anyone advise what i need to change in my initial ForAll to get this working how i want?

    Hi @mrleetyler ,

    Try this instead

    ForAll(
     ComboBox1.SelectedItems,
     Collect(
     regSerials,
     {Value: Serial}
     )
    )
