Problems with hide when

I’m having a problem with a hide when button.

I wrote it to “show when”. What is wrong here? The button is not showing up.

Here are the conditions…

If field 1 = yes and cost is less or = to $10,000, show the button or show the button if field 2 = yes.

!(field1 = “Yes” & Cost <= “10000”) |

!(field2 = “Yes”)

Thanks…

First, you should probably write this as:

!((field1 = “Yes” & Cost <= “10000”) | (field2 = “Yes”))

but more importantly, if Cost is a numeric field, your should write this as

!((field1 = “Yes” & Cost <= 10000.00) | (field2 = “Yes”))

Yes, cost is a numberic field. I’ll try you suggestions. Thanks…

For readability, I usually put these in as …

!(

(field1 = “Yes” & Cost <= 10000.00) | (field2 = “Yes”)

)

… so it’s obvious at a glance that the code is a Show-When

Hide button when

(field1 != “yes” & cost > 10000) | (field2 != “yes”)
