Hi,
I am looking for a formula (if possible) to convert a multiple choice(s) into a number. Kind of like the VFP Anchor property bit value works. Here is my example:
Choice 1 ---- ##
Choice 2 ---- ##
Choice 3 ---- ##
Choice 4 ---- ##
Choice 5 ---- ##
Choice 6 ---- ##
Each choice above would have a number (##). Then when a user checks any number of choices (from 1 to 6), the "total" number is calculated. This "total" number should be unique for any combination of the selected choices. So that this number can be used (in reverse) to see what choices it represent.
Any suggestions?
