another IF function
 

i have this formula =IF('MDA Template'!F10=0,"n/a",I10*0.25), i want to have
my cell equal the result of I10x0.25 if F10 on the other sheet does not equal
zero. in this instance everything equals zero except F10 but it still says
'n/a'. what have i done wrong?
Thanks

Is F10 in "MDA Template" empty?

Excel will treat that as a 0.

Second guess...

You have calculation set to manual.
Tools|options|calculation tab to check/change.

F10 is not empty - it is the only cell in the MDA template worksheet that is
not.
Calculation is already set to automatic
