Hi,
I am new to Quickbase, I have a table with multiple columns in it and there is a location column that I am using. In the Location column I want to show only 3 values. When I try to add the 3 items, the system auto creates a blank option too. I don't want that option, I am trying to turn that off. Any ideas on how to do that?
The field properties are Text - Multiple Choice.
Qrew Legendnp,
If you make the field required either as a Field Property, or as a Form Property, the blank choice will not be offered. It sounds like you are using the option to display as a Radio Button which is a good practice when there are just a few choices.
Hi Mark,
I have set it as required.
Here is a screenshot:
Qrew LegendCan you post a screenshot of the field showing a blank choice? Are you using Radio buttons or a drop-down?
Drop down:
Sorry, I actually was meaning to show a screen shot or a portion of the form on a real record showing the blank choice being offered to the User.
Hi Mark, sure here it is:
And this is the case with all the drop downs I have in the form.
in your Field Properties screen shot above, you do have an empty line below "Canada." Have you tried clicking the red minus sign on the empty row then saving?
yeah tried that but it doesn't respond. If I add some other value to the blank, then it auto-generates another blank below it.
I think you are in the field properties via the app structure. Can you go into the table itself, into field properties, and try to backspace out any blank lines? See below, push delete and be sure no blank lines are where the red x's are.
My MC field properties look nothing like that. Have they rolled out a new GUI interface for some realms?
