=IF(CONTAINS([202-Disability,801- Offender,802 Low income,803ESL]@row, "Disability"), 1, 9)
What changes need to be made to the above formula to return a "1" if "Disability" is selected, and a "9" if it is not selected--whether or not there are multiple selections made in the drop-down menu?
This formula works when "Disability" is the only item selected. However, if more than one item is selected in the drop-down (i.e., "Low income", "Offender" and/or “Disability”) then it returns a "9".

Hi, @DonnaH. You can use FIND().
IF( FIND("Disability", [Column_Name]@row) <> 0, 1, 9)
A multi-select value is text, so FIND() will work.
