Default IF formula

Very helpful. Thank you so much!

Assume that C1 is used for the Yes/No input. You should apply Data
validation to that cell to restrict the input to only these values
(rather than Y or N, for example). Then you can use this formula:

=IF(C1="","",IF(C1="Yes",A1*A2,B1*B2))

The cell with this formula in will appear empty if C1 is empty.

Hope this helps.

I have employees put data into a spreadsheet already created. I would like
to have one cell in which they answer yes or no, and then create a formula
dependent on that answer. So if "yes", then A1*A2, and if "no" B1*B2 (for
instances). I would be so grateful for any ideas?
