Clear your numbers and re-type them.

Any change?

Thanks for the note back. The issue I am having is the response is simply
MEETING. The formula is not working in that it searches out the parameters
of 2 or <1. Either way I can only get the formula to use MEETING. My
formula isn't being read by the cell and does not take into consideration the
NO MEETING. Do you have any suggestions for me on how to fix it so the
document reads and determines the MEETING or NO MEETING reference based upon
the numbers?

Assuming poor rendition of your posted sample data.

a2 is 500..........b2 is 600

=IF(A2+B22,"MEETING",IF(A2+B2<1,"NO MEETING")) returns MEETING

a3 is 0.........b3 is 0

=IF(A3+B32,"MEETING",IF(A3+B3<1,"NO MEETING")) returns NO MEETING

What is "not working" for you?

Hi! I need some assistance with this formula ... can't seem to figure out
what I am doing wrong. Okay, here is my scenario:

Volume A Volume B Result
500 600 MEETING
0 0 MEETING

I need a formula that will do the following:

1. Add columns A and B together
2. If the sum of the two columns is greater than 2, then the column titled
Result would show the word "meeting"
3. If the sum of the two columns [A+B] is 1 or less, then the column titled
Result would show the word "no meeting"

Here is the formula I am using:

=IF(A2+B22,"MEETING",IF(A2+B2<1,"NO MEETING"))

Anyway, the formula I am using is not working as I need it to. Can anyone
help me out here? I am desperate!

Thank you!!!!
