Hi,

 

I have used Multi-Select Control in my smart form where  50+ options to be shown (checklist box control was not appropriate as there are many options) and multiple values needs to be selected.

The selected values are saved to DB but not able to show the saved values back in the control.

 

Any suggestion to achieve this?

 

Thanks in Advance.

Are you using the list method for that control to read it? Not sure if this will help but using the list method for this control during the initialization of the form should make the control display all of the values.

 

Thanks,

What version of K2 are you on. We saw this in a previous version and needed a patch to correct it.

 

As long as you make sure you store the values delimited with a semicolon you should be able to bring them back. Are you using just text values or are you storing and ID and displaying a value?

 

You do need to have a rule to Populate the checkbox list with data before the rule to get the list item to populate data.
