Default Troubleshooting my IF formula

My formula below is working perfectly...EXCEPT, I want to add one more IF to
the end, I want to add IF(C17="12x", 6%,""....but it won't let me add this.
Am I limited to the number of IF's in one formula? Also - can I use just the
number 1, rather than 1x, 2x, 3x...? When I use just the 1, 2 or 3 by itself
it gives me a blank. I just can't figure it out - I greately appreciate your
help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

=IF(C17="1x",0%,IF(C17="2x",0%,IF(C17="3x",0%,IF(C 17="4x",2%,IF(C17="6x",4%,IF(C17="9x",6%,IF(C17="1 0x",6%,IF(C17="11x",6%,""))))))))

Thanks, can you recommend a different type of formula that I should learn if
I need to use more than 7 if's in a single formula?

Default Troubleshooting my IF formula

You are limited to 7 IF Statements nested together in a single cell.

You are returning the same results for 1x, 2x and 3x (0%). Also, 9x, 10x,
11x, 12x (6%). You can combine these in an OR function:

=IF(OR(C17={"1x","2x","3x"}),0%,IF(C17="4x",2%,IF( C17="6x",4%,IF(OR(C17={"9x","10x","11x","12x"}),6% ,""))))

If you want to use just 1, 2, 3... instead of 1x, 2x, 3x... make sure that
C17 contains just those numbers, then change your formula accordingly.

HTH,
Elkar

When you use just 1, 2, or 3 by itself in C17, is your formula C17="1" or
C17=1 ? You should use C17=1 because 1, 2, and 3 are numbers. C17="1" would
only work when you preformat C17 to text before entering the number, or if
you typed '1 (apostrophe before 1) in C17.
