HPage Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) How do you use tickbox entries in calculations? For instance, Say I have a tick box with 5 values, (Eg. A, B, C, D,E) and I want to use an "if" statement with them. I want the result of the statement to be true if A is selected, but any of the other values can be selected with A, it still stays true. So far I used If(TickboxField ="A"; blah blah), It works If A is the only option selected. How do I make it work so that any other options can be selected with A?

Lee Smith Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 The Case function to me is easier to use, this is not tested, but it should be correct. Case( TickboxField = "A"; "blah"; Tickboxfield = "B"; "blab"; Tickboxfield = "C"; "you get the idea") HTH Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPage Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 Yes thankyou, that is easier to use, but It still does not solve my problem. I will try to make myself more clear. If A is selected, the expression must be true, nevermind if B or C ect is selected with A. At the moment the expression is true when A is selected, but the moment I select something else with A it does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
