Default formula error

From Excel's help: "A formula can contain up to seven levels of nested
functions". You're well past double that. Half the nesting levels could be
eliminated by removing the ( before each 'if'. But you'd still be over the
limit.
Can you tell us more about what's in column AA? For example, can you be
certain that if a given cell is populated with a value 0, that all the
cells above it are also populated? Will they either have no value or a
number 0? ...
