Default If And statements -- HELP!

I don't understand why this formula does not work

Cell D 10 is =IF(B10=1,$G$72,(IF(AND(D11=0,D9=$G$72),$G$71,0)) )
Cell D 11 is =IF(B11=1,$G$72,(IF(AND(D12=0,D10=$G$72),$G$71,0) ))
Cell D 12 is =IF(B12=1,$G$72,(IF(AND(D13=0,D11=$G$72),$G$71,0) ))

If I check off display zero values in my options menu then I do see a zero
in the cell but the formula does not read it as a zero. The only way I know
it doesn't is when I type in a zero in cell D 12 then cell D 11 reacts the
way I expect it to.... Is there something I don't understand about formula
writing or is this one of those so called glitches?

This is what it looks like when the formula is working on its own

Default If And statements -- HELP!

I just checked the fx icon next to the formula bar and it indicates the
correct formula outcome so now I'm totally confused!

Why would the outcome not show up in the cell?

Default If And statements -- HELP!

Good morning Sandy (Toronto Time)

Thank you for your help... Is there a way to turn off the circular reference
in order for the value to appear?

Joe.

Hi GI JOE,

No there is no way that I know of to turning off the circular reference.
You can turn Iteration on or off but that does not stop the circular
references and your

Perhaps if you explain what it is that you are trying to do some of the
clever people around here will be able to give you an alternarive or work
around.

Hello again Sandy...

Thank you for reminding me that you cannot shut off circular reference
errors and so I came up with an alternative string in an adjacent cell to
avoid the error... and well I seems to have solved the problem!

Thank you to all who worked on this with (and for) me!

This is the first time I used a discussion group to resolve anything and I
must say it is an excellent forum!

Joe.
