    Maybe like =IF(), =AND(), =COUNTIF(), =ISBLANK() etc etc. Also logical arguments like TRUE, FALSE etc. Basically all functions under https://support.office.com/en-us/article/excel-functions-alphabetical-b3944572-255d-4efb-bb96-c6d90033e188 if it doesn't conflict with your current setup.

    Yes, I know they work using those methods. I was thinking if I could simply use Excel formulas directly in the widget rather than having to rely on a creating a few hidden fields and a formula for each field in order to make a final calculation, which is what we have done. It would be a minor improvement to reduce clutter on the form.

    E.g. 125*(1st field value) + Not(isblank(1st field value))*25 + 100*(Not(isblank(2nd field value))

    Great support by the way. I always get quick responses for everyone question I get. Thank you.
