=IF(AND(OR(B15="Unknown",B15="1",B15="2",B15="3"), OR(B17="A",B17="B")),6,IF(AND(OR(B15="4",B15="5"), OR(B17="A",B17="B")),7,IF(AND(OR(B15="6",B15="7",B 15="8",B15="9"),OR(B17="A",B17="B")),8,5)))

I want to add a "C" for B17 with different resulting values for "Unknown",
"1", "2", etc in B15. The actual formulat has longer texts for 1, 2, A and
B.
