for example I have the following values

11223300
44556600
66778800
99999900
77777700

I want to say if the first 6 digits in ( A1) equals to 112233 , 445566, 667788 then give the value of A , and if the first 6 digits in (A1) equals to 999999 then give the value of B, if neither then give the value of C

value of C

try:
=IF(OR(--LEFT(A1,6)={112233,445566,667788}),A1,IF(--LEFT(A1,6)=999999,B1,C1))
or:
=IF(COUNT(FIND({112233,445566,667788},A1))0,A1,IF (--(LEFT(A1,6))=999999,B1,C1))
