I would like a little help with a formula, please
I am using the following formula in cell I20, =IF(B20="x",E20*G20,"No X in B 20") which works fine. I want to change it where in cell B20 I can input any number, then the formual will do the E20*G20 and also multiply by the number in B20. I would think that is pretty simple for you Excel guru's but not for me :-). Thanks! Jess |

Try something like =IF(ISNUMBER(B20),B20*E20*G20,"No x in B20")

Jesse,
Try this: =IF(B20="x",E20*G20*B20,"No X in B 20") I think that will accomplish what you described. I hope this helps, Conan Kelly "Jesse" wrote in message ...

X in your formula is text, not a number. You can't multiply text.

Or maybe =IF(B20="x","no number in B20",E20*G20*B20)
Not sure what you want to enter in B20............"x" or a number?

lets go the way assuming a one cell formula...with a touch of dave's formula
I20=IF(ISNUMBER(B20),B20*E20*G20,IF(B20="X",E20*G2 0,"No x in B20")) if you type other text or even a space in B20 the result is "No x in B20"... i still wonder why you need the text "B20" like rml had noted.....

THANKS to "everyone"! Everyone gave a good example of the formula and I'll play with them to obtain the one I like best. I will be using this in several rows, but it will always be the same formula, just different numbers in each column. The "No X in B20" thing is just to tell whomever is using the sheet, that they need some input in B20 in order to get their answer. I will change the X to #. Have to make it simple for simple minds. Again, THANKS for your help, you guys and gals are great. Have a great week............
