Default excel formula

i have a drop down menu and when you select a drop down i want a message to
appear in the next cell which is working with one function but i have not
been able to combine two together.

A cell cannot contain two formulas -- only a single formula can reside in a
cell. However, a single formula can be designed to do multiple tasks. For
example,

=IF(A1=1, formula_1, IF(A1=2, formula_2, formula_3))

will evaluate formula_1 2 or 3 depending on the value of A1. Perhaps you
could provide some additional information about what you are trying to
accomplish.
