display of a text box based on a list box selection

[#1]

How can I display a text box based on a list box selection?

[JonnyPoole]

If your List box displays months (ie:   Jan....Dec) then a valid hide/show expression for showing for Jan or Feb would be one of the following:

1. If the user can select only 1 month :

if( only([Month]) = 'Jan' or only([Month])='Feb', 1, 0)

only([Month] -> will check if the user's selection is Jan or Feb.

2.If the user can select multiple months:

if (   substringcount(   concat( distinct  [Month] ,',') , 'Jan') > 0 or  substringcount(   concat( distinct  [Month] ,',') , 'Feb') > 0, 1,0)

--> checks if a delimitted list of values that the user selects contains Jan or Feb

--->  THEN insert the above in the text box properties -> Layout tab - > show -> conditional    area. You can do it for any object, they all have show conditions on the layout tab.

thank you for such prompt reply! genius! My users will be selecting only one option and I am not clear where I need to enter

if( only([Month]) = 'Jan')

For single value selection in listbox, We can write the below expression in text box properties -> Layout tab - > show -> conditional area

MixMatch(GetFieldSelections([Field Name]),'Value') AND GetSelectedCount([Field Name])=1

Only function is used to fetch only one value from the field over multiple rows of same value.

Your example worked great for one field selection. What if I want Multiple list boxes to be selected.

[Rule Desc] = '2x per node'

[Fab Node] = Node 1

[To be Node] = Node 2

Thank you,
