Merging Columns Across Classes was created by RJR
Hi,

I have followed the video for merging columns across classes successfully and I am now pulling data from three classes into a master class to track percentages in tests.

However, I cannot get it to collate the grades (A* - U), does this column merging not work with strings of data?

Help!

It works with Text based grades but formulas take its value as a percentage.
A* is a 1.00 (or what you've configured) B is 0.7 and so on..

Is there anyway to pull text through as plain text

i.e.

Cell contents = A
or
Cell contents = Pass

On the Formula's header (double tap header) > Grade type > Select your grade type (A* - U)

Now add the function COLUMNRESULT (it is in the 'Legacy functions' list) wrapped around what you've typed now


COLUMNRESULT (COLUMN1)

or

COLUMNRESULT ( COLUMN1 + COLUMN2 + COLUMN 3)

It's pulling through 0.00 for all students instead of the A* - U grades :(

I'd need some screenshots RJR. What was it showing before the COLUMNRESULT function.
Send it to support@idoceo.net and I'll give it a look.

Its always displayed 0.00

I did manage to have it do a grade conversion when I had the original data set as numerical and then it changed it to a grade but it still showed the numerical value in the combined column.

Sent you an email with a link to a google drive folder :)

Thanks Bert

I know it is bit confusing but truth be told not many users made it this far into formulas!
If you miss anything else do not hesitate to post.
