Character Limit for a Grade Book Formula

When you enter a formula for a calculated column in the Blackboard CE 6 Grade Book, it’s limited to 1000 characters in length. We’ve submitted a feature enhancement request to address this limitation. In the meantime, the only work around is to:

• Shorten the column names that are used to compose the formula or
• Use two or more calculated columns (each used to calculate a range of column scores) and then use a final column that adds the “sub-total” column entries together.
