Default Value in Combobox

HCL Domino Domino Forum

I have a Combobox with a @DBLookup to fill in the Default Value, and an @DBLookup to fill in the choices.

The choices work fine in the Combobox.

The Default Value won’t fill in, even when I put use a simple “Value” formula.

If I change the field type to Dialog List, the Default Value shows up with no issue.

Is their something I am overlooking in the Combobox field type? or is something else amiss?

Any help appreciated greatly.

Thanks,

J.R.

Could be that the default value calculated IS NOT MEMBER of the list obtained from the @dblookup for options?

I use a “control” database for my drop down boxes.The database has a “defaultFieldName” record containing only one value that I use in the Default Value of the field.

I also have a “Field Values” record that contains the list for the drop down.

The default is selected from the Field Values list and doesn’t allow for items not in the list.

The formulas work in all other field types that allow formulas for selection - just not ComboBox

Thanks
