Another Puzzle for the Guru's - Rating in numbers for text boxes containing letters

[Mark24657610fm60]

The attachment should hopefully explain it all. I gave this example as an attachment to work on so hopefully you can fill in the nessesary code and just send it back. As before I truly appreciate the help. You guys are the best.

I would create drop downs for each criteria where:

• a letter is diplayed but a number is the value
• the top rating is then a read-only sum of the selected values from previous point.
•

More details

1. use the 'Prepare Form' tools
2. Create the drop-downs
   • Properties:General>name the field,
   • Options: enter all the text options and their corresponding values, click Add button each time
3. Create a text field, Properties:
   • General: name, and read only
   • Calculate tab: select: Value is the 'Sum (+)'
     • Click on Pick button
     • Add all the drop-downs you created

You can always create complex scripting, a l;ot of experts on this thread for that.

What you are asking for goes far beyond just helping each other on a forum.
I can give you a quote if you want.

I'm not sure I understand it all but it doesn't look very complicated.
You should be able to do it with a few tutorials and tips.
