nested "If statement" using text
This is my expression.
=IF(M1="M",12,IF(M1="SM",24,IF(M1="W",24.2,IF(M1=" BW",26.07,IF(M1="A",1))))) The result is "False" for the "M","A", and "w". The results for "SM" and "BW" are correct. (24 and 26.07) is there something wrong with my statement? Thanks Ron B |

The code works exactly as written.
If I enter the following letters in M1 I get M 12 SM 24 W 24 BW 26.07 any other input get FALSE because M1="A",1 there is no 2nd parameter you could write M1="A",1,0 then you would get a 0 for any other response "RonB" wrote: This is my expression. =IF(M1="M",12,IF(M1="SM",24,IF(M1="W",24.2,IF(M1=" BW",26.07,IF(M1="A",1))))) The result is "False" for the "M","A", and "w".

you may have to use the trim() function to get rid of non visable characters.
=IF(trim(M1)="M",12,IF(trim(M1)="SM",24,IF(trim(M1 )="W",24.2,IF(trim(M1)="BW",26.07,IF(trim(M1)="A", 1))))) or shorter =vlookup(trim(M1),{"M","SM","W","BW","A";12,24,24. 2,26.07,1},2,0) "RonB" wrote: This is my expression. =IF(M1="M",12,IF(M1="SM",24,IF(M1="W",24.2,IF(M1=" BW",26.07,IF(M1="A",1))))) The result is "False" for the "M","A", and "w".
