How do I add more functions when I get the error "Too many functions"?

I've never seen this error before!
There's a memory limit on variables, and also a limit of 50 dll calls. Maybe
this is a similar thing.
why do you need so many functions?

How do I add more functions when I get the error "Too many functions"?

I was a bit unclear, but "Too many functions" was not the exact message I
get. I had two fields identical except that one had one extra "if" function
and when I tried to paste another function into them it worked on the shorter
one, but the other one said (literarily, this time):



"

The formula you typed contains an error.

* For information about fixing common formula problems, click Help.
* To get assistance in entering a function, click OK, then click Function on
the Insert menu.
* If you are not trying to enter a formula, avoid using an equal sign (=) or
minus sign (-), or precede it with a single quotation mark (').

"



It seems to me that there are too many functions, because if I remove a
function, I can press enter. How do I solve this problem?

Post the formula that gives you this message

there used to be an issue with nested IF statements ... 7 was the limit

i find it best to create your own User Defined Function (UDF) and to use the

SELECT /END SELECT statements

show us the formula that you're trying to use, and we'll see if there's a
nice way to implement a UDF
