But the cells doesn't come out with the result, it
displays the formula instead: "=IF
(J108=0,"K38*$C108*$C$107","0.5*(K38*$C108*$C$107) ")"
One guess is that K108 is formatted as Text
Try this:
Select K108
click Format Cells General OK
Then click inside the formula bar and press ENTER
(to re-enter the formula)
K108 should compute properly now
But .. if I've read your intent correctly, perhaps
you might also want to change the formula in K108 to:
=IF(J108=0,K38*$C108*$C$107*0.5,K38*$C108*$C$107)
(with the value_if_TRUE/FALSE switched around)

Dear all,
I need help on the following problem urgently:
In my worsheet:
Cell(K,38) = 2
Cell(C,107) = 0.8
Cell(C,108) = 280000
In Cell(K,108), I have a formula:
K38*$C108*$C$107
The the value of Cell(K,108) is 448000
Now I have the change the formula on Cell(K,108). It
should reference to it's cell to the left, i.e. Cell
(J,108). If Cell(J,108)=0, then I have to multiply the
original formula by 0.5, i.e. (K38*$C108*$C$107) * 0.5,
otherwise, it keeps the original formula K38*$C108*$C$107.
But the cells doesn't come out with the result, it
displays the formula instead: "=IF
(J108=0,"K38*$C108*$C$107","0.5*(K38*$C108*$C$107) ")"
Why does this happen? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!!
Terence
