The result of your IF formula is probably TEXT.
What does your IF formula look like?
If you have numbers in quotes:
=IF(A1="x","10","no")
Then the result is TEXT.
=PRODUCT("10",3) = 3
PRODUCT will ignore the TEXT "10".
Remove the quotes from around the numbers in your IF formula.
Also, you don't really need the PRODUCT function.
=B1*B2
Will do the same thing.

We are trying to do a simple <=PRODUCT function where we multiply two
cells:
the first cell is a number generated by an <=IF function, and the second
is
simply a cell with a single digit number. The result only shows the
single
digit number, viz 4*3=3. Any ideas?
