Hi I am terring to create a formula for the visibility of a family. So far I have a yes/no paramater for approved <APPROVED> or not approved. I have another yes/no paramater the visibility of the family <VISIBLE>. I would like if I ticked (yes/1) for APPROVED then the VISIBLE would be Un-Ticked (no/0). how do I write this in a formula.

I know its probably simple and i have tried what i can but don't be able to get it too work.

I have tried

IF (APPROVED=1,1,0)

APPROVED>1

APPROVED<0

Thanks in Advance.

Set one to "not" equal the other.

 

ie.

------------------------------------

Value                     Formula

Approved               =

Not Approved         =  No(approved)

I wrote a better example of this in another post on here...I think it was called yes/no parameters or something like that.

Hi still cant get this to work maybe I overcomplicated my first post

 

All I want to do is have 2 paramaters

 

<p1> & <p2>

 

both are yes no paramaters.

 

If I tick <p1> I want <p2> to be unticked. Sounds simple! but finding it imposible.

 

Any more help would be much appriciated.

Thanks.

You dont need a third parameter to control this. As Brett said all you need to do is inside your one parameter at the formula place type not(p1) and it should do what you want.
