#### Formula2

1. Create a new formula called Formula2.
2. Type the following in the Formula text box of the Formula Editor:

    If ToText({customer,CUSTOMER ID}) [1] = "6" Then
        "TRUE"
    Else
        "FALSE"

1. Click Check to test for errors. You will receive the following error message:

`This field name is not known.`

1. Correct the formula by replacing the comma (,) in the field name with a period (.).
2. Click Check again. The formula should now be error-free.
3. Place the formula to the right of the @Formula1 field.
4. Click `Print Preview` on the Standard toolbar to check the values in the report and compare the fields to see if the field values returned by @Formula2 are correct.

You should see "TRUE" next to all customer numbers that begin with 6 and "FALSE" next to all customer numbers that do not begin with 6.
