Hiya SPForms

I was wondering if therer was a way to display something other than "Loading Failed" when a lookup fails? I have a filter on a cascading lookup that will purposefully fail if data isn't entered in the parent lookup, but I would like to have some more helpful text like: Chose a Department first" rather than just Loading failed.

Is that possible?

Thanking you in advance!

Hello Jamal,

Unfortunately, changing the error text is not supported.

In your case, you can hide/disable the second field and show the text field with the message until the value is selected in the first lookup field.

Ah... that is a great idea! Thank you
