Well I'll be darned ... you are old!<g

I'm November of '38.

AND, what they say IS TRUE.

It's NOT how old you are, but how old you FEEL.

Also, these groups help delay the Alzheimers, keeping the brain exercising.

I hear ya Scudo...........I'll turn 67 in September. I had done a little
Symphony stuff before, but never really started into this stuff strong

until
after my Triple Bypass.......and I figured at that point, "what the
he**".........give it a go, and it's been loads of fun. I tell you tho,
like most things, I really have to keep after it all the time or it gets
away from me.....but I''ll tell you one thing, I do learn something new
every day here, and really enjoy the experience of both learning something
myself, and helping other people where I can.........keep coming back

Scudo,
keep reading the newsgroup and you'll soon be responding..........you got
the bug.......

Thanks CLR I have printed your reply and gonna spend some time trying to
understand and play with it, It used to be easier when I was a lot

younger
now its enjoyable but frustrating, I love doing spreadsheet stuff but

the
brain aint what it used to be..ooooo to be young again. :-)

You're welcome Scudo.................
My formulas were just basic IF statements,

=IF(I8=1,150,IF(I8=2,125,""))
in
M7 .....(IF I8 equals 1, then return 150, otherwise, IF I8 equals 2,

then
return 125 otherwise leave the cell blank.)

and =IF(I8=2,125,"") in M8.....(IF I8 equals 2, then return 125,

otherwise
leave the cell blank)........

Both were then wrapped in TEXT statements to display the leading POUND
sign..."CHAR(163)".

If you wanted to do further math with the now TEXT results, you could

strip
out the number part to multiply the result by 2 with...........
=MID(M7,FIND(CHAR(163),M7,1)+1,99)*2...which says, in M7, find the

POUNDsign
and go to the back side of it " the +1", and take the next 99

characters
and
multiply by 2.....of course there's only 3 more characters so it takes

them
all.

And you can put the POUND sign back in with CONCATENATION.........

=CHAR(163)&MID(M7,FIND(CHAR(163),M7,1)+1,99)*2

Chuck and RD

Clever! `It works` and for the life of me I can`t (couldn`t ever

never,
old
time! or new time!) understand either of them. I look at the

formulas
and
try and work out how they work. I don`t know what they feed you guys

on
but
it sure seems to work, keep eating the stuff :-)

and thanks for your help
really do appreciate it.

Scudo

That's very clever RD........I've never seen it done like that.

I would have just used the old time
=TEXT(IF(I8=1,150,IF(I8=2,125,"")),CHAR(163)&"000" ) in M7
and =TEXT(IF(I8=2,125,""),CHAR(163)&"000") in M8.

Try this:

In M7:
=(I8=1)*150+125*(I8=2)

In M8:
=125*(I8=2)

In cell I8 I put a 1 or 2
If I put 1 then I want cell M7 tp show £150
If I put 2 then i want cell M7 to show £125 and cell M8 to show

£125

As a variation if its easier I would be happy with cell I8
If I put 1 then I want cell M7 tp show £150
If I put 2 then i want cell M8 to show £100, as either way it

would
show
a
total of £250


thanks
