Hello,
In the address section of my database, when you select either Canada or USA it provides a list of relevant ‘Provinces’ or ‘States’ in the Province/State field. Currently the provinces/states are written in full but I would like that once a selection is made, the field automatically inputs the abbreviation - ex. someone selects ‘Saskatchewan’ and it auto-enters/replaces it to ‘(SK)’ on commitment.
I managed somewhat to achieve this using the substitute function but only for one entry, I was not able to enter multiple substitutions – ex. Substitute (Province ; “Saskatchewan” ; “(SK)”). Is there a way to enter multiple substitutions as a conditional value? Is this the best way to go about it?
FYI, my address section is linked to conditional value lists with the following fields:
Country (list of countries)
Prov/State (list of provinces and states)
Prov/StateAbb (list of provinces and state in abbreviated form)
Thank you in advance for your help!
