Building on Chayce's response, my guess is you have seven different features and you want them ranked. One way to do this is to have 7 multiple-choice fields called feature number one rank, feature number two rank feature number three rank, etc. up to seven and each of these will be a multiple-choice field listing all seven possible features.
note that if you make the first field, then it's very easy to copy the field to make the other six.
But then my guess is you don't want to allow them to repeat any feature twice.
Of that is the case, you would use it formula which would be a bit repetitive, but not too bad copy paste to make sure that the same feature was not selected twice.
feel free to post back if you need help making the formula to determine if any of the features were listed twice.

Your guess is exactly right: I don't want to allow them to repeat any feature twice. The plan is not to allow them to repeat a rank...so there will not be two ranks of 1, etc.
Even with written instructions informing the users, I need a way to prevent them from selecting the same rank for multiple questions.
So yes, I do need help with how to program the formula based on the previous answers. My guess is it would be something like a nested IF,THEN statement like:
If Q1=rank 1, then Q2-Q7 can only be ranks 2-7
If Q1=rank 2, then Q2-Q7 can only be ranks 1,3-7, etc.
Am I thinking about this correctly???
