Logic to restrict seperator type in cell
Hi team,
I have column in which values are separated by different seperator like ":" ,";", "." Etc.
I want to restrict user to enter only one seperator that is ";"
Is it possible in smartsheet?

You cannot restrict it during entry, but you can use a helper column with a formula (series of SUBSTITUTE functions) to swap out the incorrect delimiters with the corrects ones.

Could you please share one example

It would look somethign like this:
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE([Column Name]@row, ":", ";"), ",", ";")
