Retain a Selection in a Sheet when you switch back

Hey Folks,

I have a requirement in which I want to retain a selection that I made in a Sheet when I switch to other Sheet/tab, when I come back to the Original Sheet where I made that Selection, that should be there irrespective of selections that I made in other page.

I have two buttons to switch between the Sheets, I have tried writing actions using on Getfieldselections(fieldname).

The thing is when I select single value in the other sheet , it works fine. When I select multiple values in the other sheet and I switch back, field will be cleared with no selection. Here, I want to have the previously selected value when I selected in the sheet.

Could you guys help me to implement on this.

You can use alternate states in each sheets to separate the selections made in each sheet from affecting other sheets.

Or use sheet event triggers to store / replace and call a bookmark when leaving / entering a sheet.
