Listbox: searching for values returned by expression

[sibrulotte]

Hi,

I'd like to have the user type in a project name or a project number in the header of a listbox of project names that has numbers as expression.

Example: type "236" or "Licence" and you'll end up at the same result.

I don't want the user to have to click on the "more search options" or whatever in the upper right corner.

I have a slew of other listboxes to accomplish the same.

Is there a way to accomplish this using only the visualisation tools,

or do I have to create fields in the script to get the two components in the same field and us that in my listbox?

The text search in project field should be standard and well known, right?

You can use an advanced search (start the search string with 😃 to search the expression results.

For example, if your expression is something like

=Sum(Hours)

Just use as search string

=Sum(Hours) = 236

Drawback: Your users may need to know the expressions and search syntax

Definite drawback, I can't even write my expression like a boss without copy paste:

=only({1}[Extra comptable 3])
