I am trying to figure out a formula that when I change the value of the %complete to %100 my status column with drop down list pics a specific word and fills it in the cell. Can this be done?

Hi Octavio,

Yes, it can. Use the formula below in the status column.

=IF([%Complete]@row = 1; "Complete")

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the semi-colon to a comma in the above formula.

I hope this helps you!

Best,

One thing you have to consider when using a formula in a drop-down box is that if you are using reports to have people update and monitor their tasks they won't be able to change the dropdown in their report. Fields with formulas are not editable in reports. That's the only drawback.
