Hi Rob
Thank you for the suggestion. I found it easy to choose columns to have on the edit form except for the name field. I'm trying to use this on a document library. The name field can appear but it's only to view, you can't edit the name. It also seems to be effecting the New form because a name is required for a new document set in the document library but the name isn't an editable field so no new document set is created with the power apps form. What should I do?

I'm looking for a more permanent solution. I am able to hide the column for as long as I don't reload the page. I want to hide this column permanently. It is only pertinent to the workflow and is not needed to be seen. RobElliott
