I want to create a constrain where if Orange is selected, Mango must also be selected. Likewise, if Mango is selected then Orange must be selected. Can anyone help how to write the syntax in XlsForm? thank you

You could do the same as outlined in the image below:

Thank you sir for the quick response. What is the syntax if:

  1. Apple must be selected,
  2. If Orange is selected, Mango must be selected.
  3. Other fruit can be selected or not
