Value property
Represents the value of a switch field.
If no formula is associated with this property, the switch field is an input field that users use to enter and edit values. If a formula is associated with this property, the switch field is an output field that displays a calculated value derived through the formula.
Referencing switch field values from formulas
When referencing a switch field value from a formula, there is no need to write .Value,Value after the field name if a logical value is sought. These formulas are equivalent:
Above, the AND
function is looking for logical values. As SwitchField1SwitchField1 and SwitchField2SwitchField2 can return logical values
through their Value
properties, .Value,Value is implied.
Examples
Returns whether the values of SwitchField1 and SwitchField2 are both TRUE.
Returns whether the values of SwitchField1 and SwitchField2 are both TRUE. Writing out the Value property in formulas (by writing SwitchField1.ValueSwitchField1,Value) is rarely necessary.
This formula is associated with the Visible property of a text box and causes it to be shown only if the switch field ShowMoreInformation is toggled to its "on" position.
