Splitting values from multi select dropdown into multiple rows
Hi,
I have a multi select drop down that I am using in my form. There are other text areas in the form as well. Is there a way I can create as many rows as items selected from the drop down while keeping the other text areas common? For e.g If I select 3 values in the drop down, it should result in 3 rows, with one drop down value per row and the other fields replicated?
Thanks
Ritika

You would need to manually create the additional rows and enter the data you want parsed. Then you can use cell references to populate the remaining columns.

I'm also looking for a way to do this. If I find something I'll come back.

Any updates on this? Looking for a solution to 'split' multi select values gathered from a form to separate rows.

I saw a post from a year ago that Multi Select Dropdown is in development. Any update? I want to create a survey with ranking options. From what I've seen thus far SmartSheet is looks cumbersome.

@Julie Neumann Multi-Select Dropdowns are available as a column type.

Do you know if anyway I can "transpose" one row with two values under the multi-select field, into two rows with one value each under the Multi-select field?
Thank you!
