more ifs and an or thrown in for good measure
I'm tryng to write a statement for the following:
if a or b are typed in cell than 5 is the multiplier, if c is typed in cell than 10 is multiplier, if m is typed in cell than 15 is multiplier, anything else would give an error code. help appreciated. using excel 2000. |
=if(or(a1="a",a1="b"),5,if(a1="c",10,if(a1="m",15, "error code")))

One way:
=IF(OR(A1="a",A1="b"),5,IF(A1="c",10,IF(A1="m",15, "Error"))) In article , littlebit wrote: I'm tryng to write a statement for the following: if a or b are typed in cell than 5 is the multiplier, if c is typed in cell than 10 is multiplier, if m is typed in cell than 15 is multiplier, anything else would give an error code. help appreciated. using excel 2000. |

Try =IF(OR(A2="a",A2="B"),5,IF(A2="c",10,IF(A2="m",15, "Error Value in A2"))) regards Peter Atherton |
And one mo
=IF(OR(A1={"a","b"}),5,IF(A1="c",10,IF(A1="m",15," error"))) littlebit wrote: I'm tryng to write a statement for the following: if a or b are typed in cell than 5 is the multiplier, if c is typed in cell than 10 is multiplier, if m is typed in cell than 15 is multiplier, anything else would give an error code. help appreciated. using excel 2000. -- Dave Peterson |
Since you asked for an "error code", try this for brevity:
=VLOOKUP(A1,{"a",5;"b",5;"c",10;"m",15},2,0) -- HTH, RD ============================================== Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ============================================== "littlebit" wrote in message ...
