Formula Check Box
Hi There,
I need help with implementing "Checked" vs "unchecked" symbol into my formula. Online I saw " Checked" and "Unchecked" and that didn't work for me.
My formula : =IF([Founder?]@row = "", [First Name]@row + " " + [Last Name]@row + " is a founder of " + [Name of Company]@row + ".", IF([Founder?]@row = "", [First Name]@row + " " + [Last Name]@row + " is NOT a founder of " + [Name of Company]@row + ".", ""))
The first one is If Founder is checked
The second part is unchecked.

You would use the below:
Checked:
= 1
(equals one)
Unchecked:
<> 1
(not equal to one)

In Smartsheet, the checkbox has a value of either true or false. When it is checked, it has the Boolean value of true (or the numeric equivalent of 1). It has a value of false or 0 when unchecked.
The second/nested IF() statement is not needed.
=IF([Founder?]@row=1, "...is founder...", "...is not founder...")
