Default If statement for a range of cells

Thank you, it worked perfectly.

Hi, I want to know if it is possible to create an IF statement

I have tried IF((A1:C50)=0,TRUE,FALSE), but it does not work.




You might try one of the following array-entered formulas (press

ctrl+shift+Enter instead of just Enter):



=IF(AND(A1:C50=0),TRUE)

or

=AND(A1:C50=0)



Alternatively, try the following normally-entered formula (just press

Enter):



=IF(COUNTIF(A1:C50,"=0")=COUNT(A1:C50),TRUE)

or

=COUNTIF(A1:A50,"=0")=COUNT(A1:C50)



Caveat: COUNTIF treats numeric text differently from COUNT. And A1:C50=0

treats all text as TRUE.
