Use trigger to select first possible value?

I would like to set the value of a particular field when I navigate to a tab. For example, if I navigate to tab A and the field Market has no values selected, I would like to select whichever possible value is first in the list of values. Can I do that with a Select in Field or Select Possible trigger? Using what expression?

Thank you!

Ellen

Sure you can

In Sheet Properties click Triggers and Add Action (Select in Field)

put into Field box your Field name such as:

F1

then write into Search Expression box:

=MaxString({1} F1)

or

=MinString({1} F1)


if the field ordered it will select minumum or maximum value available in your field

see attached example.
