I think all the suggestion are good.
I am extremely lazy and my suggestion requires only 87 keystrokes.

Judging by the other inputs, you get top points for Orginality and are well
up the scale on Execution. Very good!

Hello - I've searched, but cannot find what I'm looking for... I need to do
this:

In the cell A3 the formula should say

If A1 = "red" and if A2 = "blue" enter 10 in A3, or
If A1 = "green" and if A2 = "orange" enter 20 in A3, or
If A1 = "purple" and if A2 = "yellow" enter 30 in A3.

And, I will need to replicate this down a column of 5 rows.

THANKS!!
