I am trying to organize our work with out grant objectives. I have now a multi-select field with the objectives written in its called "Primary Objectives". I want to create a field that can read from the "Primary Objectives" and will output  text identifying the grant name.  I tried using Contains([Primary Objectives]), "Objective 1", CEE," 
"CEE" is the desired output. Does anyone know if this is possible or maybe I can use dynamic form rules?

You can do this

IF(Contains(ToText([Primary Objectives]), "Objective 1"), "CEE")

But are you just checking for the objectives in separate fields or do you want a list of them based on all the selected Primary Objectives?
