Default Copying formula

Have formula =if(a1=1,"1",if(b1=1,"1")) in Column E1. How do i drag the
formula down to get the following results. In E2, i would like to get the
result =if(a1=2,"2"if(b1=2,"2")) and in E3 =if(a1=3,"3",if(b1=3,"3"))

Default Copying formula

Change the constants (1, 2, etc.) in your formulas to cell references (E1,
E2, etc.). Those references should include the corresponding numerical
values you want.

Default Copying formula

=IF(A$1=ROW(),TEXT(ROW(),"#"),IF(B$1=ROW(),TEXT(RO W(),"#")))

I assume that you do want text, rather than numbers 1 and 2, as answers, and
that you want it to return FALSE if the conditions aren't met? [That's what
your formulae do.]
