How to get a Formula to output a text.

Hi,

Not sure what the Synthax is for a Formula to return a text is. I have my Line Item formatted as Text, but want to know if I'm on the right track with the formula.

IF 'Y01 Collection_Funding'.Front Book=1 THEN &"WITH PH"& ELSE &"WITHOUT PH"

Thank you

Hi!

It is simple. Write just "text". And it works this way.

IF Flag? THEN "text1" ELSE "text2"

When you combine some text and variables or text and another text, you should use "&".

IF Flag? THEN "text1" & valiable1 ELSE "text2" & valiable2

Break the formula out and use text formatte line items to feed in the statements.

Also, use a boolean to inform the IF statement contained in a seperate line item.

When you find issues arising from tricky formulas always break them out into its constituent parts.

Good luck,

Chris
