as one of the mortals <hehehe

may i guess that your works are D3 and E3, while *<C3* is your rest limit
for combined work...

so i guess that u need to work for both D3 and E3, before I can say that u
will have enough to rest in blank""...

try this..
=if(and(d3<"",e3<"",d3+e3=c3),"","REL")
c3,d3 and e3 are numbers...
lastly I guess you need the other formula from Sandy and Sir Valko, who work
for this question, a time ago....

This is my formula =IF(D3+E3<C3,"REL",0), this works fine if I need to
release more work but it returns a 0 when I have enough. I would like to
have
it return as "blank" (no text, no numbers) when I have enough.

Thanks
