Hi,

I am trying to get two calculations sorted so that i can separate the x and y coordinates in to two fields.

I have tried the substr method that so i can have one start at the x and then one start at the y. Only problem with this method is that the y starting point fluctuates. which means it can be right sometimes and completely wrong the other times.

My question is does the Survey123 xlsform have a calculation similarly to the FIND in excel where you can find the location of a character in a string.

e.g FIND("-", ${location}) would give the position of - in the location field.

I can then use this inside a substr calculation to specify a starting point.

Thanks in advance would love to know if this is possible yet.

Hi Rod,

We currently don't have a FIND operation like you describe.  We are working to enhance the calculation capabilities and will look at calculations with geopoint properties further.
