Thanks Marcelo, Thanks Trevor, Trevor's hit it right on the nail. it looks
the original I was working on, but I had the or trying to pick up the
AA26="O" or "U" together, I see you broke it apart.

Thanks both, this will make life easier.

One way:

=IF(AND(OR(AA26="O",AA26="U"),OR(AB26="O",AB26="U" )),"1","")

Hello,

I tried to figure this out, seems to me that I'm getting close

I need the formula to look at column AA see if it says O or U, then look
at
Column AB and see if it says O or U, then if they both meet this criteria,
then return 1 in AC,

this is what I have so far,

=IF(OR(AA26={"O","U"},AB26={"O","U"}),"1",""), I'm probably off, but it
seems to have started to do something. I was using the And function, but
running out of time.

Regards, thanks to all in advance.
