    Help with my schedules

    hello, i´m having problems with my schedule, plese somebody help me!

    I need a number parameter that change my "0" values to a word,
    I need a parameter that allowme to write down numbers wich i use to a formula, but when the number its equal to 0 don´t want "0.00" to apper in the row, i want "IRREGULAR" to apere...

    Thank you very much!

    I don't think this is the thread to post your question in, it probably should have been started as a new thread.

    You can not change the parameter type. It is either a number parameter or a text parameter. What you can do is add a text parameter (shared, if you want it in a schedule) that has the formula

    if(x=0, "IRREGULAR", "")

    That formula will make the new field blank if the value of x is not 0, and will read "IRREGULAR" if the value is 0. You might also be able to add the same formula as a calculated value to a schedule. If you just want a visual indicator in the schedule view (not to print out) you could try adding a conditional format to the cell that would make it stand out when x = 0.

      Thanks you jmk!

      it was more or less the way i was trying to solve my problem.

      i made a new text parameter:

      if(x=0,"IRREGULAR","")
      but i would like that if x in not = to 0 then have the number as text, so i wright that: if(x=0,"irregular",x) but as expected revit sais that i have a units problem...



      i´m sorry about de "new thread", in fact i don´t actually know what is it, it was the first time i enter in a formun.
      i will try to do that, i´m stating a "new thread"

        A text parameter is a text parameter, it will only display a number if you tell it what it is, so you could do if(x=0,"IRREGULAR", "9") and it would read "9", but it won't update with the value of x. A text parameter is a string, it can only return strings and it can't convert numbers to strings. There may be API out there that can get Revit to do that, but right now you can only do if(x=0, "Text if true", "Text if false").
