Default alternative to if statement

I need to use more than seven arguments in an if statement. What
alternatives do I have? There is no way I can limit my criteria to less than
seven variables. Please advise.

Depending on what you're actually doing, you may be able to use some sort of
Lookup table. You also may be able to use the OR function. But once again,
it depends on exactly what you're doing with your IF statements.
