no problem. I find schedule problems fun and I actually usually learn from them so lets figure it out.

ok i tried it. still nothing. i think your concept is spot on but i havent given you all teh info. i think this is the problem. this is an area calculation from generic models. one of the models have required area, i labeled this not satisfied per your new parameter the othe model has provided area. i labeled this Satisfied per your new parameter as you can see from the schedule above i am showing 20%. that column is a simple calculating parameter in the schedule that takes the required area and multiples it by 20%. this may be why it isnt working? if(Percentage Required Area < Provided Area, Satisfied, Not Satisfied) is the formula in the results parameter im using and both the satisfied and not satisfied are in the fields also. those text parameters show up in the schedule correctly when itemize each instance. it is probably somethign really simple im missing.

your required area and provided areas were fine. The ONLY (as far as I can see) thing wrong with what you were doing originally was you can't use text in an if then statement. you MUST only use parameters. The work around is that you create a parameter with the text you need that you can use there. you create a text parameter like I said before and name it Satisfied. then make the text value Satisfied. so Satisfied=Satisfied Unsatisfied=Unsatisfied Result=if(Percentage Required Area > Provided Area, Satisfied, Unsatisfied) also the calculated values are fine. your Percentage Required Area=Area*.2 correct? so result really is Result=if((Area*.2)>Provided Area,Satisfied,Unsatisfied) but revit carries it through as Result=if((Percentage Required Area=Area*.2) > Provided Area, Satisfied, Unsatisfied) so it works out.

the provided area you can change manually and then you can see the satisfied/unsatisfied change.

yeah i think we are on the same page here and you have helped me think of quite a few things. im gonna try a few more things and then maybe ill throw a file up. the one major difference im seeing is that the provided area and area in your scenario are in the same family. maybe that has somethign to do with it. each of mine are in a different family. mabye it doesnt matter. im gonna keep playing around. thanks so much.
