I have a drop down list with multiple selections, is there any way to give each option a value? For instance above, in the first column, 2 things are selected, can I have that as a 2? Second column 3 things are selected so that would be a 3.
Each of the first 2 drop downs have 5 choices.
So, I would like the "severity rating" to automatically populate based on the answers in the 4 columns before it. Is the only way to do this with a macro?
The numbers to the left of the list are the values I would give for each, so your highest "severity rating" score could be 20. Based on what I have in there now, the rating would be 11.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
if the first line of the drop down were 1 account issue taking =left(a3,1)*1 would return numeric 1 which can be added to other selections using the same methodology
