So numeric would solve it for us?
That is, if the code for the option we want is numeric = 2 in all 3 data 
elements, this should work?:
d2:condition('#{qaDVwQUHD0j.g4bPEQ4a7WM} == 2 ',1,0) +
d2:condition('#{qaDVwQUHD0j.FFpJ2FZU7rJ} == 2 ',1,0) +
d2:condition('#{qaDVwQUHD0j.dLKjtfo7GD3} == 2 ',1,0)

Ok, I understand - was fearing this could be the reason :) The codes need to be 
quoted when they are text-based, so the other short-term workaround I can think 
of is to use numeric codes.

HI Markus
Thanks for your response. I thought that might be the problem. Unfortunately 
our use case is more complex than my example, so the filter workaround doesn’t 
help – we want the indicator to return a combined set of conditions. For 
example, 3 data elements all with the same option set for delivery of up to 3 
babies for a pregnancy, to count not the event once, but 0, 1, 2 or 3 live 
births (option ‘LB’) from the 3 data elements for baby outcome. It sounds like 
we will have to make numerous program indicators using filters, and then 
aggregate indicators to combine them. We were trying to avoid that!
Thanks
Jane

Hi there Jane!
The problem with the below condition is that we are using single quotes inside 
a single quoted statement. This is not supported at the moment.

Not really knowing enough about the use case, I venture into suggeting a 
possible workaround: If you are able to use the condition below as a filter 
statement instead of an expression, you can change the aggregation type to 
"Count", and the expression to "V{event_count}".

Hi
Can anyone advise on whether program indicator expressions can use data 
elements with option sets? They do not appear in the list of data elements 
available, but it does not tell me my expression using the UID of one is 
invalid. However, it also does not give me a result. Example I am trying to use 
is:
d2:condition('#{qaDVwQUHD0j.g4bPEQ4a7WM} == 'LB' ',1,0)
to return a value of 1 if that condition is true, otherwise 0. Is that possible 
and I am just writing my expression wrongly? Even with a Boolean data element 
that does appear in the list of data elements, I could not get a result using 
== 1, == TRUE, == Yes.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks
Jane
