Counting checkbox export value

[#1]

Hi, 

I have a form with 15 questions, for each question, there are 3 answers (A, B, and C). at the end of the form, there is a table for the results (A, B, and C).

I need to count the number of selections for each one (example: A: 7, B: 3, C: 5). I set the export value for A answers as "A" and so on.. 

I tried to search for a solution but couldn't find anything.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I think this was just answerd but using radio buttons in this thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat/calculation-to-score-a-quiz-with-radio-buttons/m-p/11573478#M...

That's a different scenario, in your reply, the final calculation is the result of all selections as one sum.

In my case, I need to know how many A, B, and C. Therefore, there are 3 calculators, one to count A, one to count B and one to count C

Refer to this example https://www.dropbox.com/s/jv3axw68zkwgr7p/Example.pdf?dl=0

You can use this code to count the number of instances "A" was selected, and with minor adjustments the rest of them:

var total = 0;

for (var i=1; i<=15; i++) {

if (this.getField("Check Box"+i).valueAsString=="A") total++;

}

event.value = total;

Thanks,

It's working.  -:)

Unfortunately, it looks that the built-in PDF viewers on Edge and Chrome don't support that sort of thing...
