ComboBox result not displaying on Form Edit/View modes

[Luka84]

Good day...

I've got a SharePoint list from which I've created a powerapps form for

One of my SP List fields is a Single Line of Text, I've inserted a Combo Box Linked to another SP List for selection in this form.

All works well, and the Combo Box saves/passes the selected choice/record into my SP List when saving/submitting the form.

However when opening the same SP list item in Edit or View modes, the Combo Box shows "Blank" value, even though the field holds and actual value when checking on my list.

Below are the formulas I'm using, for reference

1. Items

SortByColumns( Distinct ('01. CASH_SERVICES', SERVICE ), "Result" , Ascending)

2. DisplayMode

If(IsBlank(MODIFIERVALUE_SERVICES.Text), DisplayMode.Edit, DisplayMode.View)

3. DisplayFields

["Result"]

This is how it looks like in the "Form.New" mode:

This is how it looks like in the "Form.Edit or Form.View" modes:

I suspect it has something to do with "Default" property

I tried "Parent.Default", but it returns an error.

Might not be the issue, but worth the thought

Hey @Luka84 

Can you try to update the DefaultSelectedItems property of the combobox control to:

Expression: [Parent.Default]

If you get any error using this expression, please share the error details.

Hope this Helps!

Hi @yashag2255 

I knew it was simple, just didn't know the context - thank you sir

I tried Parent.Default without the brackets and it didn't work, drove me crazy !!
