Hi,

I've checkboxes on the form and wanted to use them in the report. In report, it only shows yes/no that is if checkbox is selected or not and doesn't show the checkbox text.

Form:

Report:

Is there a way I can show actual text or name of that checkbox in the report instead of yes/no? If multiple checkboxes have been  selected then can we handle that scenario? 

Thanks in advance!

You can just create a formula text field for each of these and use if statements to handle it like this:
 
If([Create or Delete a Product]=1, "Product Created or Deleted", "Product Not Created or Deleted")   

Then show that field in your report instead.

Alternately:

You can use report formulas to do this directly in the report.   

In the report builder,  under the 'Report Formulas' Section,  create a new report formula and enter the formula above:

   


That formula will then appear as a column you can add to the report.

Note that these values would only be visible in that report and not usable anywhere else (if that matters for your purpose).
