Nested IF statement - with checkboxes

I am looking for an IF statement to check the box if true, but do not check the box if NOT true.

 

=IF([Actual Response Date]47 <= [Response Due Date]47, 1, IF((ISBLANK[Actual Response Date]47), " "))

 

I have an Actual response date, so when the date is over the due date OR is blank, I do not want the checkbox to have a checkmark. This statement works but checks if the actual date is BLANK. I cannot get it to NOT check it. HELP

  • Is it possible that you are having the problem when Response Due Date is also blank?

    If so then the Actual and the Response are = so the box gets checked

    Try changing your " " to a 0. For the checkbox symbol, 1 is checked and 0 is unchecked. 

    =IF([Actual Response Date]47 <= [Response Due Date]47, 1, IF((ISBLANK[Actual Response Date]47), 0))

     

    That should do the trick for you if the Actual Response Date is blank.
