Is there a way to sort the contents of a cell alphabetically? If I create a cell that is gathering data from other sources (linked file, concatenated), can I then take that data and arrange it alphabetically? I'm struggling to find anything that works with the data in a single cell.Thank you for any tips you might have!

Hi!Is there any easy way to add a unit to the number field?I have a lot of tables with dimensions. Some of them are metric, some imperial.I want to show them as:0,234 => 0,234 mmor0,234 => 0,234"Of course without changing numbers to texts - because I do a few calculations on them.

I have a form that a member uses to search for their name using a lookup from another base. Because of PII Standards, I can't have their full name listed for others to also see. This basically works as a task tracker so (external) users have to enter their name and what they worked on.A) Is there a way where I can only show the first OR last name OR an abbreviation (John D.)? I have tried using the Regex formula which works (don't have split function), but that only helps me put the first name in another column and won't affect the lookup that is what members use when they open the form to search their name. The lookup is critical because it uses other values associated with their name that helps me in the form to track other things. Or....B) Is there a way so that when they search their name that it doesn't automatically list all the other names? This would be easily solved if the first column of the table that I'm using for a lookup would

I am trying to create a field that tells me is a date field, called Purchase Date, is before a specific date, 04/09/2023 (did/mm/yyyy, same format as the date field). This is my formula so far, but it returns a “0” (ie false) on all records so many what date I enter between the “ “ in the formula. IS_BEFORE({Start Date}, "04/09/2023")How do I fix this? Thanks!

Hi, does anyone have any ideas on how to write a formula to mark a previous date for each person?

I am looking for a way to split expenses amongst people in our company without duplicating the total. We purchase company merch/promo items and that expense goes under our expense table and is assigned to 1 of our 7 offices, or corporate. We assign all promo expenses to "corporate". We then have an Inventory and an orders table. I add the inventory in as we buy more and add that to our expenses. Then, as the items are distributed to employees and partners those go under the orders table. The issue is the full expense amount remains under "corporate" instead of splitting it amongst the employees (who are assigned to a branch in the employees table) based on what is distributed to them in the orders table.

Good day to allI am looking for some help for my problem after spending all morning on it. My table is an 'audit table' for blood tests. I have a colum that is a linked field to another table that allows me to select the blood test requested (Samples requested). With each Sample there is an associated turnaround time from the lab. I have set this up as a single select and it is either 24hrs, 48hrs, 72hrs or 5 Days. To view these TAT, I have a colum with 'expected TAT' and this is a lookup field. However, when I select several Samples, I can have several TAT. I only want to see the longest TAT ie if I had 24hrs, 24hrs, 48hrs - I would only see 48hrs. I have tried several different formulas and scripting and not wining at all. Any help is appreciated.

If I have one date in a single cell, then I would use the formula DATETIME_FORMAT({}, 'MMMM) to convert that date into a month.  However, sometimes when using a Look Up I'm pulling multiple dates, separated by commas, into one cell. I'd like to find a formula that will convert all of these multiple dates into the month equivalent. So solving the 'error below'.  Any help much appreciated. Thanks.
