'Ctrl' click by actions in Text boxes on same field

[Anonymous]

Hello guys,

I've a question, which probably will be solved easily but for some reason im not getting it right.

I've one field with different values. Now I would like to work with mulitple text boxes which contains actions to select a value from that specific field.

But it just selects the new value you click on but actually the first selection should stay and you need to add the next value to your selection by clicking on the text box.

See a sample application attached.

you want to retain previous selection on clicking other textbox?

Yes thats right, but the all the 3 textboxes are based on the same field.

Hi,

You can create a list of selections based on previous selections by concatenating with already selected parts.

For your first box, the expression for 'Search String' would be:

='(' & GetFieldSelections(Field) & '|' & 'Test)'

Note that this would just add more and more 'Test' to the string so your 'current selections' may look weird, but the functionality is as expected.
