I am tasked with building a process that will enable the end user to input a valid expression for a calculated column but simply process that instead of adding a new column to the list.
The expression would obviously be a valid calculated column expression however I want to seperate the expression from the list.
The purpose is the seperation is that for a given item in a list there might be a N amount of expressions that need to be evaluated seperately. I would not want to conduct these expressions on each list item as they are not applicable to all items.
My initial thouht was to just add a content type for each scenerio but without giving a long explanation, essentially it would make administration of these expressions difficult.
So.... Is there anyway to leverage the expression evaluation engine that sharepoint uses when it calculates the values?
Thanks in advance
