Hi all, I'm testing out whether I can use a table in org as a project status tracker. In col 6, I have the value of the project (e.g. 162.50) and in col 9, the status (e.g. quoted, approved, invoiced, closed, etc.)
I would like to see, at a glance, what the value of quoted work is, so I'm currently doing this in col 12 (pasted from formula editor): # Column Formulas $12 = if($9=quoted,$6,0) ( Col 9 in this instance contains "closed" and Col 6 contains 162.50. ) This formula results in the text closed = quoted ? 162.5 : 0 being displayed in col 12. However, in another row where the col 9 does have the text "quoted", I get pretty much the result I'm looking for, e.g. "400." will appear in col 12 where I have 400.00 in col 6. In the instance where the if test proves false, I would like a zero or nothing appearing. The intention is to sum this column in a footer row. I have consulted http://orgmode.org/manual/Formula-syntax-for-Calc.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calcbut it contains a dead link ( http://orgmode.org/calc/Logical-Operations.html#Logical-Operations) - making it harder to RTFM :-) Thanks, -- Steve
