Re: Extracting the DisplayName from the people picker control

If your people picker only has one value then you can just grab the first instance of DisplayName rather easily.

If you require multiple values, then you'll probably need the double eval trick. There are a few posts on this topic or a quick search will bring up quite a few results. I haven't tried this out myself with the people picker, but I believe it should work.

Here are some links to get your started:

Extracting the DisplayName from the people picker control

Hi,

I need to extract the Display Name from the people picker control. I've added a formula, but it still show the Display Name AccountID AccountType combination. The formula I've used is:

xdMath:Eval(/my:myFields/my:RFRInitiatorGroup/pc:Person, "pc:DisplayName").

I'll really appreciate some help to get this sorted out.
