I need help with a formula. In Column B I will have a date. In column E I
will have a total of C and D. Right in E I am using =SUM(C3+D3). If I do not have a Date entry in B I do not want E to show. I tried =IF(B3<=TODAY(),C3+D3,"") But that does not work for me. Any suggestions? I am using Excel 2007 |

I'm glad that you've decided not to use =SUM(C3+D3), because =C3+D3 would
have done just as well. If you want E3 to be blank if B3 is blank, and you don't want to compare B3 with today's date, change your =IF(B3<=TODAY(),C3+D3,"") to =IF(B3="","",C3+D3) -- David Biddulph "Kevin" wrote in message ...

I am using Excel 2007- Ukryj cytowany tekst - - Pokaż cytowany tekst -- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - If you are going to use SUM then you'd use either =SUM(C3,D3) or =SUM(C3:D3) This might be preferable to =C3+D3 because SUM ignores text so if either C3 or D3 had a text value using SUM would avoid an error while still summing any numeric values in the range With SUM(C3+D3) however there is no advantage to using SUM, it's superfluous |
