Hello All,

I need a formula for a field that sums up the total weight of specific bags in my table.

I currently have 25 Text-Multiple Choice fields titled "Item 1," "Item 2," etc., and 25 numeric fields titles "Weight 1," "Weight 2," etc.​  Each Item field has 4 choices.  One of which is "Checked Bag," and then the relevant weight is displayed in the corresponding weight field based by number. 

I need a formula that sums up the total weight of all items (1-25), if the item field is equal to "Checked Bag."

Hoping for a simple fix here.  Thanks,

To update, I have figured out how to pull the values I need and am testing it on the first couple entries.  However, I cannot figure out how to get the formula to add up all the values, rather than just display the values I'd like to pull.  See attached photos for reference.

To conclude, I did end up figuring out a solution:

First step was to use a Numeric Formula field instead of a Text Formula.  I attached the solution in the file section.

Thanks!
