I'm trying to do a formula that will look at what someone types in a cell. If
what was typed is one specific word or another, something happens. But if the person didn't type one of those words, something else will happen. Any ideas? tia |

Try this:
=IF(A1="x","First Option",IF(A1="y","Second Option","Unspecified")) Mike "Pam" wrote: I'm trying to do a formula that will look at what someone types in a cell.
