Forms calculation - IF(%(field) != 'x') - How do I get the "Does Not Equal" to work?

posted on January 18, 2022

This should be simple, but I just can't seem to get it to work.  Using calculated fields in Forms, what expression do I use for "does not equal?"
 

I've tried '!=' and '<>' but get a field calculation error.

Hey Sean,

You should be able to use <> you will need to wrap your "x" in double quotes. I just tested the following simple expression that sets a field equal to either 1 or 0 based on whether or not another field IS NOT EQUAL to 1. The formula is added to Field1 and works as follows:

If Expression1 is not equal to "1", then our field is 0, else our field is 1.

=IF(Expression1<>"1",0,1)

Double quotes, that's what was messing me up!  Thanks!
