There are a lot of ways - it depends on your data and on your preferences,
which one to use:

a) Use a lookup table and LOOKUP/VLOOKUP/INDEX/CHOOSE/SUMPRODUCT to return a
value from there
b) Use some mathematical expression to generate wanted result
c) Split multi-lefel IF() into several expressions, and add or concantenate
results of those expressions
d) Use CHOOSE function, to return up to 28 different pre-defined results.
etc.

Hi Lando
Post a sample of wat you are trying to do.
There may be other ways than IF functions.
VLOOKUP perhaps.
