Hi there a really basic question regarding boolean and text fields. What is the simplest way to set text into a field depending on the value of one or more boolean fields in the table? I am trying to create a text field of true when two fields = 1. Needs to be in text format so it can be exported clearly to Excel as words rather than numbers.

Copy of database attached.

Case(

field1 and field2 ;

"true"

)

If you just wanted a boolean result, then this would do the trick:

field1 and field2

In my experience, Excel makes its own mind up about what is text and number.
