Field OnChange Trigger

[Anonymous]

I'm probably just over-thinking this, but I can't seem to make this work. I have a ListBox for a field called "Data Set" that allows the user to limit the data (from a large concatenated fact table) displayed in chart objects. There are only three options. The users can select any one of the values or the first two values at the same time. BUT...the third option can only be selected by itself. So I'm trying to get this trigger to detect if that third option has been selected and, if so, unselect the first two options (if either have been selected). Conversely, if either or both of the first two options is selected, the third is unselected. I hope that makes sense.

Hi,

I would propose the following idea:

First would group the first two options in a group on a list might only if the second choice is selected (previously third) group (now first choice) would no longer be selected. On the other hand if you select the group would open another list of options with the first two current

Do not know if I have explained and if it helps anything?

Saludos,

Enrique

Thanks for the example. Not exactly what I'm after but workable if I can't figure out the trigger solution.

That's really close jsaradhi. But it doesn't allow either of the first two options to be selected.

Hi,

In your case it is

=if(WildMatch(GetFieldSelections([Data Set]),'Operator*'),('Operator Sales'),'("' & GetFieldSelections([Data Set], '"|"') & '")')

Hope this helps you.

modify the expression in my above post to the following (note the extra * in wildmatch and the 4 double quotes i added in the second part of the expression)

=if(WildMatch(GetFieldSelections([Data Set]),'*Operator*'),('Operator Sales'),'("'&SubField(replace(getcurrentselections([Data Set]),', ', '"|"'),': ',2)&'")')

Thanks jsaradhi! That seems to be working as I need it to.
