Make the next 1 row true

Hi Community!

 

I have a quick problem, which I am sure there is an easy answer for but I am struggling to get my head around multi-row formulae.

 

The situation is, I have got one true value in a list of false values, and I would like to make the subsequent 1 record true also.  Could anyone write me an expression to do this, or is there a simpler way to do this without the multi-row formula tool?

 

Thanks for your assistance in advance!

 

Andy

Hi @andy_deg 

 

New field: DESIRED VALUES

 

IF [Row-1:CURRENT FIELD VALUES] = "TRUE" THEN "TRUE"

ELSE CURRENT FIELD VALUES ENDIF

 

CHEERS,

Hey @andy_deg 

 

I think Multi-Row is the only way to go here:

 

The formula will be something like:

If [CurrentField] = "FALSE" and [Row-1:CurrentField] = "TRUE" Then [NewField] = "TRUE" Else "False" Endif

I was getting myself in a right muddle with the row-2 values also!

 

Thanks so much!
