In my sheet I would like the 'Status Level' column to autochange to 'Complete' when the checkbox for completed is checked off. Is there a formula to so this with?
While there potentially is a way to set this do what you are asking, the challenge will come with if you or someone else changes the dropdown status. It would be easier to have the checkbox for complete auto check when the dropdown says complete. If you populate a dropdown field with a formula, then manually choose a dropdown option, it will overwrite the formula and would stop working. I would stick with marking items as complete via the dropdown or come up with a method for checkboxing the other status' so that no one is manually setting any of the dropdown statuses. Does that make sense?
While this post does not speak directly to your request, the concept and solution are the same.
