hi,

I have a column which is denoted by F in the header and M in the header.

i want to create a formula that will show Female and Male instead of F and M

Thanks

Try using a formula of:

if {table.field} = "F" then
"Female"
else
if {table.field} = "M" then
"Male"
else
"Unknown"

do i create this under Selection Formulas/record selection (i already have a formuala in this section)

the other option is to under formula fields by selecting new -- doing this does not seem to help

pl advise

thanks
 
Yes, under formula fields, adn then use that formula field as your column instead of the table.field.

Your last reply helped.
