Hello, I use program languages, but I don't know how to write it in Power apps. I have created variable Set(CriteriaCounter, 0), so in programic language it is int criteriaCounter = 0.

This variable is going create number for each criteria depends on numbers of criteria in this code: ( you can just take a look only in two first If() functions )

Okay first if works right, but my variable CriteriaCounter is still 0, but I need to say CriteriaCounter++ or CriteriaCounter = CriteriaCounter +1, so in this case my variable will be changed, and I will get the rigth numbers. Please help😊

CriteriaCounter++ would look like this in Power FX:

Set(CriteriaCounter, CriteriaCounter+1)

It's not possible call Set in something like the Text property of a label, which is what I guess you're doing.

You'd need to call Set from a behaviour property, such as the OnSelect of a button or icon.

If you just want to display the count on a label, you'd be better off just writing a formula to show the count. Do you really need to store that value in a variable?

Sum( If(DisputedCheckBox_1.Value,1,0), If(DisputedCheckBox_2.Value,1,0), If(DisputedCheckBox_3.Value,1,0), If(DisputedCheckBox_4.Value,1,0) )
