Just another option,
=((A1+B1)<0)*MAX(A1,B1,0) -- HTH Sandy Retired for Work But hopefully not from Life with @tiscali.co.uk "profmorse" wrote in message ... how can I build an If statement that answers the following; If A+B<0 then chose A only if A is greater than 0, otherwise chose B, only if B is greater than zero, otherwise 0. |
