I want to write an If statement where if the answer is false, the exact
value
from another cell will go into the cell with the formula.

For example.

In H6 i would write

=If(E6=not given, "", "E6")

where if E6 = not given nothing would appear in H6, but if it did NOT =
not
given then the value in E6 would go into H6


Try the following:

=IF(ISBLANK(E6),"",E6)


Sorry, I should have been more clear.

E6 will actually say "Not Given" or have a phone number in it. It will
not
be blank if nothing is given.

Is there a way to do this?


=IF(E6="Not Given","", E6)
