JD2775 Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Hi, I have a few checkbox fields in my layout that I want to export to Excel. The problem is when I do this I get some very weird results and strange characters. Is there a secret overall to exporting check-box value fields into Excel, where they are actually usable? i.e, look correct, can do calculations etc etc. One thing I did in Filemaker to get rid of the actual checkbox logos themselves in tableview was do a substitute field. Substitute(Field1; "¶"; ",") This stores the checked values with a comma between them in FMP, but I still dont get the correct results when exporting to Excel. Basically, is it BAD to use checkbox fields if you want to export your data to Excel and have it usable? Thanks
