Sounds like you need a different formula altogether. IF can only handle 7
levels, and formulas can only be so many characters. Perhaps if you provide
the issue you are tryign to resolve, we can give a smaller formula?

Hi, I have a long if formula in excel, but can't finish as I get the error
that the formula is too long. Is there any way to extend the length a
formula can be?

Otherwise I guess the only way around it is to put parts of the formula in
other cells?,

or

As a big part of the formula repeats, as the logic part of the if can you
create a name for a formula and store it as a macro or somewhere else and
refer to it as the name in the if statement to reduce the length ?
