Chapter 1 – What are formulas?
Formulas are equations that perform conditional checks on column values in a list or library. A formula starts with an equal sign (=) followed by the if function that returns either a true or a false result.
The below example checks to see if the value for the Status column is New.
=if([$Status] == ‘New’, ‘true’, ‘false’)
If true then the column gets displayed, if false then the column is hidden.

Every day I get to work in an industry, with people and businesses where I can make a difference in the way everyday work is experienced. I believe in inspiring businesses and individuals to re-evaluate how they operate, communicate, collaborate, and function.

Yep, you sure can and not a developer in site.
