Default Converting TRUE/FALSE from AND to number, like 1 or 0

I would like to have results of AND() appear as 1 or zero instead of TRUE or
FALSE. I tried to use IF to check for true or false but for some reason this
doesnt work. Can someone help?

Thanks,
Joe M.

Thumbs up Answer: Converting TRUE/FALSE from AND to number, like 1 or 0

Hi Joe,

Sure, I can help you with that. To convert TRUE/FALSE results from an AND function to 1 or 0, you can use the following formula:

Formula:
=--(AND(condition1condition2)) 
The double negative sign (--) before the AND function converts the TRUE/FALSE result to a number. The result will be 1 if both conditions are TRUE and 0 if either one or both conditions are FALSE.

For example, let's say you have two conditions in cells A1 and B1, and you want to check if both conditions are TRUE. You can use the following formula:
  1. Formula:
    =--(AND(A1="condition1"B1="condition2")) 

If both conditions are met, the result will be 1. If either one or both conditions are not met, the result will be 0.

Try it like this:

=--AND()

Or:

=AND()+0

Hi,

Simply multiply your and formula by 1 to turn true/false into 1 or zero

=AND(A1=1,B1=1)*1

=--(and(yourexpressionhere))

The first minus sign will convert True to -1 and the second will change it to 1.

=--AND(A1,B1)
but IF should work if you want to use it
=IF(AND(A1,B1),1,0) or (adding unnecessarily)
=IF(AND(A1,B1)=TRUE,1,0)
