What i'm trying to do is, at present, all my lengths are in feet... but
sometimes i need inches... so what i want to do is...make the board foot
function add an additional "/12" to my current funtion "=H20*F20*D20/12"
when i fill in a lenght as 120" vs 120. Even if i could use a checkbox
to add the additional "/12" to my function that would be helpful!
Thanks! :confused:
 
perhaps even something like if checkbox= clicked cell:b17 = "formula1
and if checkbox= unclicked cell:b17 = "formula2"

?
 
Lets say you have a checkbox from the forms menu and link it to cell A1.
Now when you check the box, cell A1 will have true, and when you
uncheck, it will have false.

Now to all your formulae which use the length which is entered in
inches or feet, you can add this part.

then
=H20*F20*D20/(if(A1,12,1))

If you check the box, A1 will be true, and your formula will be divided
by 12, and if the box is unchecked, then A1 is false, and your formula
will be divided by 1.
