Hello Boban.
I called GetAllRows and assigned them to list elements. I tried your idea but the index is not appearing. Instead, the data of selected element appears.
Kindly help.
There’s the catch. If searched using filter and element is clicked, Selection index is not as desired.
eg: if 1 A, 2 B, 3 C, 4 D. and I search D… Selection index after selection of D is 1 and not 4.
How to solve this?
Because the index you are getting is the index of the new list and not the original list. The original list has 4 items and the resulting list (with filter) has fewer indexes and the order is changed.
Thanks for the response, RR.
Is there any way to preserve the indices of the original list and use them/it as index after selection?
Tried it.
Instead of index, the selection itself appears on the label.
