Hello,
I'm sure that this is a no-brainer for most of you, so that is why I am posting in this forum. I am trying to fill in cells in a worksheet using an IF..AND statement, but it's not working properly, so I'm obviously doing something wrong. The statement that I am using is: =IF(AND(C4=0, OR(C4<=25)), "XXX","") and I'm trying to find a value within a range. What I want to say is: If C4 =0 OR C4<=25 THEN C4 = XXX ELSE "blank" Did I set that formula up incorrectly? Should I not use the AND statement and have nested IFs instead? The problem that I have is it's not doing the value check on the cell, so it doesn't place the 'XXX's in the proper cell. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Holli |

You are trying for an OR, not an AND. So I think Don just missed that.
It should be =IF(OR(C4=0,C4<=25),"XXX","") -- Allllen "Don Guillett" wrote: try =IF(AND(C4=0, C4<=25), "XXX","") -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "HBuck" wrote in message ups.com...

I bet you really want AND.
=if(and(c4=0,c4<=25),"xxx","") But this formula can't go in C4. It has to go into another cell.

=IF(AND(C4=0,C4<=25),"XXX","")
"IF C4 is greater than 0 AND C4 is less than or equal to 25, THEN "XXX", ELSE "" " If that's the logic you're looking for, then use the formula above. Dave -- Brevity is the soul of wit.

Not to harp, but everyone who is saying to use:
=IF(OR(C4=0, C4<=25), "XXX","") That will result in "XXX" being displayed if C4 contains a number, any number. Because any number is either greater than 0 or less than 25, or even both.

it is no surprise that people have answered in different ways. anyway I think Holli will have got what she wants out of this -- Allllen "John Fuller" wrote: Not to harp, but everyone who is saying to use: =IF(OR(C4=0, C4<=25), "XXX","") That will result in "XXX" being displayed if C4 contains a number, any number.
