Corey-Troy Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I have a checkbox(text) on a layout that gives the user an option of selecting up to 4 items. 99% of the time only one option is selected, and the other 1% of the time the need may be to select 2 checkbox options. What i am trying to achieve is to have a separate calculation field to display only the chosen checkbox item. I tried the following, but i do not get a value displayed in the calc field: Case(Checkbox_Text_field="Checkbox_Option_1";"Option_1_Selected"; Checkbox_Text_field="Checkbox_Option_2";"Option_2_Selected"; Checkbox_Text_field="Checkbox_Option_3";"Option_3_Selected"; Checkbox_Text_field="Checkbox_Option_4";"Option_4_Selected") How can i correctly accomplish this? Do i need to somehow use a True/False statement in the calc?
comment Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Not sure what exactly is the result you expect. Perhaps all you need to do is place another instance of Checkbox_Text_field on the layout, and format it as Edit box.
Corey-Troy Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 I just tried your suggested method, but for some reason i only ever get the first check box value, even if the second value was the only selection chosen. How strange is that?
