Sum Checkbox Fields

[RachelT]

Good Afternoon,
I have been trying to sum several checkboxes, however I continue to get an
error. What is the proper way to sum several fields? Do they need to be in
different sections?

No.
Best bet is to make sure your check boxes have a value of 0 or 1.
Then have another field (dont have to have displayed) that does
something like sum(field1 + field2 + field3)

Hi,
1.Go to check box properties.
2.Select 0 in ‘value when cleared’ drop down.
3.Select 1 in ‘Value when checked’ drop down.
4.Click ok.
5.And calculate the sum as the person in above post said.
