Change colour textbox if and

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to change the colour of a textbox according to a certain condition. Unfortunately it does not seem to work when I have "AND" conditions under an IF statement. The expression that I cannot make it work is the following:

=IF(Brand='X AND Brand='Z' AND  Brand='Y', RGB(0,240,0), RGB(0,39,130))

The problem seems to be in the "AND" since this expression works perfectly well when I only have one condition!

Anyway I need to highlight that text box anytime Brands X, Z and Y are selected simultaneously! Any ideas?

May be try this:

If(

SubStringCount('|' & GetFieldSelections(Brand, '|,|') & '|', '|X|') = 1 and

SubStringCount('|' & GetFieldSelections(Brand, '|,|') & '|', '|Y|') = 1 and

SubStringCount('|' & GetFieldSelections(Brand, '|,|') & '|', '|Z|') = 1, RGB(0,240,0), RGB(0,39,130))

You are missing a single quote on X.

I think you will need an OR instead of an AND - but try it in this way:

=IF(match(Brand, 'X', 'Z', 'Y'), RGB(0,240,0), RGB(0,39,130))

try with

=if(Concat(DISTINCT Brand, '', Brand) = 'XYZ', RGB..., RGB....)

Try this

= if(GetFieldSelections(Brand) = 'X, Y, Z', RGB(0,240,0), RGB(0,39,130))

Thanks a lot to all.

I like this hard code.  Let's assume if we do have A-Z then do we require to loop 26 times. Or any other solution to achieve. I appreciate your inputs
