What are you doing that would require 15 conditions? And most likely you
would be better off creating a table and using vlookup or match.

Give us more details of what you want to do. There are ways of
combining IFs to overcome the 7-nested limits, but there are also
other ways of coping with multiple choices which don't involve IF.

This doesn't make much sense to me. Please explain further, relating
what cells you are using and what you want to see happen.
