Newbies miscole Posted March 7, 2001 Newbies Share Posted March 7, 2001 I am currently creating a database for our Upward Bound Program. Part of the grant is to keep track of "contact hours" with our students (weekly/daily). I have created the database and have created fields for each subject area (i.e. composition, college tour, newsletter, etc). Here's the problem I'm having.....whenever I mark a field, say composition, I want it to automatically enter a "1" in the code field; when I enter a "x" in the college tour field I want it to enter a "2" in the code field..... PLEASE HELP! I thought the If/Then statements would work but I'm not for sure how to tackle this! HELP if you can. Thanks. Mis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWeaver Posted March 9, 2001 Share Posted March 9, 2001 I'm assuming that you will only check one item per record. You can set up the Code as a calculated field with the following calculation: Case(not IsEmpty(composition),1, not IsEmpty(colegetour),2, not IsEmpty(newsletter),3, "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
