    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Could you tell me:

    1. Do you have a person column in list?
    2. Does the person column support multiple selection?

     

    If my assumptions are correct, Please try the steps below:

    1\ Set the Items property of combo box control to:

    Choices([@LIST77].TestPerson)
    
    // LIST77 is the name of my list. 'TestPerson' is the name of my person column.

     

    2\ Set the Update property of Person datacard to:

    DataCardValue8.SelectedItems
    
    // DataCardValue8 is the name of my combo box control.

     

    3\ Set the Default property of Person datacard to:

    ThisItem.TestPerson
    
    // The premise is that you set the item property of the form

     

    4\ Set the DefaultSelectedItems property of combo box control 'DataCardValue8' to :

    Parent.Default

     

    5\ The result is as follows:

    If the problem still cannot be solved, please provide your errors/ formulas / controls / pictures.

     

    Best Regards,

    I have the exact same scenario.  When I change everything as you state above, I'm still getting an error that reads "This formula uses scope, which is not presently supported for evaluation. Data type: Table" 

     

    I have even created an additional test -- created a new SharePoint list with a single-choice column that I called "Single" and then changed it to a multi-select.  In PowerApps, I'm still getting the same error.  Obviously, I'm missing something.

    I don't think I got an answer to this either.  Sorry.
