Myrna,

I'm not, (can't), trying to answer for Aladin, but I don't understand what
you mean by:

According to the documentation for the N function, it shouldn't work

My Help says for N:

*************************
If value is or refers to N returns
A number That number
************************

If N returns a 0 then it is the same as:

=IF(0,"Alex","Sandy")

which will return "Sandy"

Why do you find it counter-intuitive?
