    TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS. **AND those in the corporate world**. I've used this tool when creating standardized notes for my phone agents. If they check the box, it adds it to the note they'll then copy in paste into our system! Thanks for the tip!

    The formula
    =IF(G2=FALSE, "Delinquent", "Done")
    can be rewritten as:
    =IF(G2,"Done","Delinquent")
    Notes:
    1) No need for the actual comparison, as the cell used (G2) already contains a boolean expression (a boolean constant).
    2) It's not necessary to put a space after a comma when passing arguments to a function in a formula. That being said, I would find it a useful feature sometimes - e.g. to use it for some more striking separation when dealing with particularly long and/or complex formulas. *Any whitespace in formulas does get saved exactly as entered but is completely ignored during parsing.*

      or it can be also written as
      =IF(NOT(G2), "Delinquent", "Done")

    In Google Sheets, you can use conditional formatting directly on the cells that contain the check boxes, you also don't need to have a hidden column for true/false because the checkbox automatically equals true if it's checked.

    Well done, first I didn't manage executing the function IF, because in my case that is distinguished with ";" not with ",". Thank you very much for granting this information !!!

    Hello!
    A good tip, you can just press in the cell twice where you drag and then the Excel will fill until the last filled line of your spreadsheet. If there's no line filled, it won't do anything
    Thanks for the tutorial!

    Thank you for the checkbox video. My next search is how to use those check boxes to capture and calculate a total value. For example, column E has 10 rows of check boxes. When you check a box, that gives you one point. I then need to get a total of how many points were in that column. For example, 3 checked boxes equals 3 points in another cell. Now let's take that a step further. Column F has another 10 rows of check boxes. However, each of those points are worth 2 points. So now I need to calculate and show the total points in another cell. For example, 3 checked boxes displays 6 points in another cell.

    Hello, if I have a checklist all set up that are linked to a filter. Is there a way to make a collapsible checklist under each to sub divide my main checklist items? I know I can group and collapse rows, but they don't link to the master row I would like them to follow. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

    • @stephaneenglish4661
      @stephaneenglish4661 4 роки тому

      Badr gaming not with the simple, form controls checkboxes. The checkbox has to be linked with a cell in your workbook, so that Excel formulae can work with the data. Once you’ve given the data a “home” in a linked cell in your spreadsheet, you can then use it in any formula you want. For data in cells which you don’t want the spreadsheet user to see, you have a couple of options: you can hide the column or row with those cells, like in the tutorial, or you can put the linked cell in a separate worksheet (tab) and then hide that worksheet.

    Is it possible to create an automation where the check boxes gets automatic"check" if done, and "x" if not? Referencing to another column?

    • @timbushell8640
      @timbushell8640 4 роки тому +1

      No, the checkbox is empty or ticked - binary choice. If you wanted say [X] -v- [ ] you can use simple dead text, but the sheet drives from the true false statement in the driving case or a non-linked manual tick in the update case.

    • @timbushell8640
      @timbushell8640 4 роки тому +1

      Also, it is easier to read and maintain sheets if the logic also flows to either adjacent cells (hidden or not) or for European writing languages from left to right... ... otherwise, it is amazingly easy to get in a mess, very fast.

    • @petercarbone4742
      @petercarbone4742 Рік тому

      Hold shift when you drop the checkbox onto its designated cell. This will keep it locked to the cell you assign it to.

  • @stephaneenglish4661
    @stephaneenglish4661 4 роки тому +2

    You didn’t need to write “IF(G2=false,…”. Instead you could have written “IF(G2,…”, because G2 already contains the result of the test (“true” or “false”).

      @stephaneenglish4661 4 роки тому

      Shaer Sajeeb If you want to use a form control to run a task I think you’d need to record a macro to add one to the value in the cell, then insert a button instead of a checkbox and assign that macro to it.

  • @Cruz0e
    @Cruz0e 4 роки тому

    duplicating fields (like true=done, false=delinquent) and also repeating data for example you have "Customer service" or "Management" words like 100 times in your sheet, bad anomalies :/ I know these are just examples for excel and not database programming, but at least here is my comment to note this
    its not good way to do it, better make a spearate sheet/table for the departments index them (e.g 1=management ,2=sales ,3=assistants etc) then dont store text informations like "customer service"
