Hello    This is regarding the closed forum - community.dynamics.com/.../1206929

i was testing the form and everything is working fine used the same code you had given, but just had one issue when I select some option in multi choice column and then I remove it , I'm getting the below error, if I select again some options then it will work properly.

when I open the new form then i will not receive any error, only when i select option and remove all options then i get this error, basically when i select something and then i remove it only if field is blank i get error, may something to do with this line not sure - if (selectedOptions.filter(i => i.value === 100000005).length > 0)

    Hi psk_12,

    Through my test, same error will appear, which is because the intendeduseenvironment  field value is null.

    You need add another new condition before original condition, which can specify the intendeduseenvironment field value is null or not.

    function Showhidecoulmn(executionContext) {
        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        var raiseRequest = formContext.getAttribute("new_intendedproductusers");
    
        //Returns Array of Selected OptionSet Values, example [1001,1002,1005 ]
        var selectedOptions = raiseRequest.getSelectedOption();
        if (selectedOptions != null) {
            if (selectedOptions.filter(i => i.value === 100000005).length > 0) {
                formContext.getControl('new_intendedproductusersother').setVisible(true);
            }
            else {
                formContext.getControl('new_intendedproductusersother').setVisible(false);
            }
        }
    }
