IF Function
I am trying to creat a worksheet to automatically calculate our football
picks. So far, I have our teams listed in the first column, each in their own row (A3 - Indy, A4 - New Orleans). B3 would be the winner (Indy) Column C - is the person's pick (C3 = 0, C4 = 6) I entered this IF Function =IF(A3=B3,C4,C4) So in this case it returns 6. Which is right; however I am trying to have it return 0 if I have not entered a winner yet? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |

IF Function
Hi,
I'm a bit confused by you question. The formula =IF(A3=B3,C4,C4) Will always return C4 irrespective of whether A3=B3. If you want to evalute that only when B3 isn't empty try:- =IF(B3<"",IF(A3=B3,C4,C4),0) Mike "Alyssa" wrote: I am trying to creat a worksheet to automatically calculate our football picks.

I am sorry, It should have been C3, C4. Regardless the formula you provided
for me worked. Thank you so much for your help. "Mike H" wrote: Hi, I'm a bit confused by you question. The formula =IF(A3=B3,C4,C4) Will always return C4 irrespective of whether A3=B3.
