Hi Sarif,

Select one item, then find the checkbox for 'always one selected value' on the general tab.

Now users can only ever select one item

Hi,

Select Any one item Then

Go to LIST BOX Properties, Check "Always One Selected Value" in General Tab.

Can you describe more?

We have option called "Always Selected one Value". Can you check this from General tab. It should select one value only. When you talk about USER prospect you may describe more on this

Hello Adam Sir,

But in that case we cant Clear the selection. At least one value is always selected.

We do not want that.

How to avoid this.

Please help.

Thanks,

Sarif

QlikView Associative behavior works in such a way that whenever you clear an explicit selection (green), you'll get multiple selections (white) or even everything selected (everything white). Does that behavior correspond with "users do not want to select multiple values"?

I thought that might be the case

OK you can get around this with some field trigger trickery.

Please see the attached qvw file as an example of how to do this, it refuses to let users select more than one item, but will allow you to clear, or to select one item

Hi Sarif,

Did this work out for you?

It is working awesome, only thing we have to give expression only on "On Select" and not on "On Change".
