Blank fields when editing an existing list element
MartaGM the "user-friendly" format in Date/Time Columns can be changed into a user-understandable format. Pls. see my new "greatest hits" Date & Number Formatting blockbuster 🙂 if you want to review the settings on your flows and in happy end you will also see, that "user-friendly" does not correspond in a weird way with that new Date Control. Maybe this is the cause of your column trouble...
Next idea: the regional settings could have something to do with the Tenant Settings. If your company changed the subscribing options, maybe they pay less but now the tenant is located to another country (?)...
Another idea: If that Version Field in your list only accepts a Number, which deals with "." usually, but the "." is converted to a "," (Comma), it is a clear sign, that your list changed the regional settings for you. I know, this sucks. Pls. try inserting a Version "Number" with Commas instead of Dots.
Have a good day
Hi again, I'm already desesperated 😞
I can't find the error.
I could make the column to display the date just in Spanish (not mix with English) by changing the regional options of my computer, but I see the same whether I choose friendly mode or standard in the list setting. I thought it was supposed to display something different... furthermore, my column is set to date & time format, it force me to add time when I change the value but then it doesn't appear on the list:
- You are right, now it doesn't work for me either! I guess I have to delete cookies again 😞
I posted that it works (on Chorme) but not as I expected ("mi gozo en un pozo" 🙂 ). It only works if the browser doesn't keep cookies, so I have to chech the option "erase cookies and site data after close all windows" in Chrome configuration, otherwise it doesn't work. And when I open another list and open again the previous one the problems show up again....
Anyway it is a solution to keep the tool in use.
Thanks (again) and regards..
- Glad to help 🙂
I know how desperate it can be - Hi... It works for me... at least in Chrome. Thanks a lot.
If I find a solution I'll post too.
Thanks Hi jsantosmoreno ,
I haven't completely solved the problem (I'm waiting for my tech support to check my computer) but I managed to make the list work in Chrome.
What I did was:
- In my computer selected my regional settings to Spain
- In my microsoft account, I selected my personal settings instead of the ones defined by site admin:
- In chrome I deleted cookies
With those steps the lists work but only with Chrome. I did the same in Edge with no luck, neither on teams.
If I manage to solve the problem I'll put it here.
Good luck.
Hi. I'm in the same problem. Some of my team members started having that problem, when you enter the list item, the form is empty. Now I have the problem also (I'm the owner and admin rights). If I visualize the list in Sharepoint I don't have that problem. I will continue investigating what it can be. I also have a flow in power automate (to generate an incremental identifier) that may be the cause. I'm also a bit desperate. I'm going to make some changes in the regional settings to test ...
- Hi Martha, if your PC is the problem, you should run a windows 10 update. Maybe this can help. Try this shortcut: WINDOWS Key + X, in this Option Menu click on "settings" - last icon "Update & Security". And pls. check also, if your PC has the latest security update on your Firewall App. And PLEASE: Ask your Admin, tech Admin, whatever Admin on that issue.
Hi again,
I hace confirmed the probelm is my computer (don't know where), because with my user I can edit those lists in my cellphone and in another computer.
By changing regional settings I managed to see the date columns in format date + time, but I still can't edit.
Any idea?
thanks again.
