This is a form that I have created in excel. I want to test if the user
inputs text in q48 that matches text contained in cells c27:c35, then plus
the content in q48 to another cell -- v26, if q48 is not the same as cells
c27:c35, then do not plus the content from q48 to v26.
So, I will try the formula that you sent me to see if this works, unless the
above extended explanation warrants a different solution? What do you think?
Thank you for your help on this.

q48 is one number or data item and c27:c35 would consist of 8 numbers or
data. What do you want to test for?
BTW, leave out the + on +q48. You are in excel land now, not lotus.
maybe this is what you want???. If no match "", q48
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(q48,protected!c27:c35,0)),"",q48)

When I compute this function: =IF(Q48=Protected!C27,+Q48,"") -- I get
results, but if I insert a range rather than a reference to only one cell,
I
get ### signs where my calculation should be.
If I try to compute: =IF(Q48=Protected!C27:C35,+Q48,"")
then I get the error symbol of ### rather than a computation. What am I
doing wrong.
Up all night on this!
