Nested IF, reports incorrectly, can't find anything like it to ref
I've boiled down a problem Function to the following statement:
=IF(I54=OR(2,3,4),"Low","") I54 = 2 Function returns "" |

Each component of the OR function must return a TRUE/FALSE value....
however, if those components return numeric values: 0=FALSE, any other number=TRUE. Consequently, OR(2,3,4) is equal to OR(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE) Try on of these: =IF(OR(I54=2,I54=3,I54=4),"Low","") or =IF(OR(I54={2,3,4}),"Low","") Does that help? -------------------------- Regards, Ron Microsoft MVP (Excel) (XL2003, Win XP) "Chris T-M" wrote in message ...

Duh! Thank you very much.
Now if I can just simplify 21 nested IF statements into 7 I'll be set. "Michael" wrote: Try this: =IF(OR(I54=2,I54=3,I54=4),"Low","") -- If this posting was helpful, please click on the Yes button.

Thank you also. They both work, but the second is less "wordy"

Alternate solutions often use a lookup function instead (eg Lookup, Vlookup,
Index/Match). Choose might also be worth taking a look at (see XL help for description). Other methods (defined names or user defined functions) are discussed he http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/nested.htm "Chris T-M" wrote: Duh! Thank you very much.
