About This Feature
Overview
The TRUE function in WPS Spreadsheet returns the logical value TRUE. It is useful for logical tests, formula placeholders, boolean output, and learning basic spreadsheet logic.
Core tasks include:
- Insert the TRUE function from the Insert Function dialog when you want to browse function names and descriptions.
- Type
=TRUE()directly in a cell or in the formula bar for faster entry. - Review the function syntax and description before using it in a worksheet.
The TRUE function does not require any arguments. After you enter it, the result is the logical value TRUE. In spreadsheet workflows, it is often used together with functions such as IF, AND, and OR.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | WPS Spreadsheet provides the TRUE logical function and supports both dialog-based insertion and direct formula entry for cell-based calculations. | Microsoft Word supports formulas in tables, including logical functions such as TRUE(), but the feature is designed for document tables rather than a full spreadsheet workflow. | Google Sheets is an online spreadsheet product that supports formulas, data analysis, and collaborative spreadsheet work. | Notion formulas work with database properties, built-ins, and functions for database-level calculations and logic. | Adobe Acrobat supports calculation fields in PDF forms for form-based calculations rather than standard spreadsheet cell formulas. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: TRUE works directly in spreadsheet cells for everyday logical calculations. Distinct: users can insert it from a function dialog or type it directly in the sheet. | Compared with WPS: Word formula features are centered on table calculations inside documents, so the workflow is less focused on spreadsheet-style cell editing. | Compared with WPS: Google Sheets emphasizes cloud collaboration and browser-based work, while WPS fits local Office-style spreadsheet editing on Windows. | Compared with WPS: Notion formulas are mainly tied to database properties instead of traditional worksheet cell formulas. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat calculations are designed for PDF form fields, not for general spreadsheet formula editing. |

Overall Conclusion
For users who need a direct spreadsheet formula workflow on Windows, WPS keeps TRUE close to standard cell editing and logical calculation tasks. Microsoft, Google, Notion, and Adobe each provide related calculation features, but their primary scenarios differ across document tables, cloud spreadsheets, databases, and PDF forms.
Use Cases
