Using the AND and OR functions in the same formula
I need to create a formula that says IF LEFT(A1,1)="7" AND LEFT(C1,1)="A" OR
LEFT(C1,1)="T" OR LEFT(C1,1)="G", THEN CONCATENATE(A1,B1,C1) I don't know if I can use AND and OR in the same formula, or how to string it all together. Help, please. Thank you. |

Using the AND and OR functions in the same formula
You can use And / Or in the same function but you need to be very careful
with your bracket and such. Try this... =IF(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7", OR(LEFT(C1,1)="A", LEFT(C1,1)="T", LEFT(C1,1)="G")), A1 & B1 & C1, "") -- HTH...

Try this:
IF(OR(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7",LEFT(C1,1)="A"),LEFT(C1,1 )="T",LEFT(C1,1)="G"),A1&B1&C1,"") Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Jan Buckley" wrote: I need to create a formula that says IF LEFT(A1,1)="7" AND LEFT(C1,1)="A" OR LEFT(C1,1)="T" OR LEFT(C1,1)="G", THEN CONCATENATE(A1,B1,C1) I don't know if I can use AND and OR in the same formula, or how to string it all together.

One way that seems to work.
=IF(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7",OR(LEFT(C1,1)="A",LEFT(C1,1 )="T",LEFT(C1,1)="G")),CONCATENATE(A1,B1,C1)) "Jim Thomlinson" wrote in message ...

Help, please. Thank you. Assuming that you intend AND to take precedence over OR, and that you want your answer cell to be blank if the condittion isn't met, then try: =IF(OR(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7",LEFT(C1,1)="A"),LEFT(C1, 1)="T",LEFT(C1,1)="G"),CONCATENATE(A1,B1,C1),"") Otherwise, shuffle the formula accordingly. -- David Biddulph |

Using the AND and OR functions in the same formula
WELL....afer *carefully* re-reading the request...and realizing that my first
post missed the mark. Here's an option that you could try =IF(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7",ISNUMBER(SEARCH(LEFT(C1,1), "ATG"))),A1&B1&C1,"") Note: Instead of using the CONCATENATE function, you can just link the text values to be joined by ampersands (&) Is that something you can work with? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Ron Coderre" wrote: Try this: IF(OR(AND(LEFT(A1,1)="7",LEFT(C1,1)="A"),LEFT(C1,1 )="T",LEFT(C1,1)="G"),A1&B1&C1,"") Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Jan Buckley" wrote: I need to create a formula that says IF LEFT(A1,1)="7" AND LEFT(C1,1)="A" OR LEFT(C1,1)="T" OR LEFT(C1,1)="G", THEN CONCATENATE(A1,B1,C1) I don't know if I can use AND and OR in the same formula, or how to string it all together.
