How to combine "IF" functions
I have this function =IF(L9="w1",5,0) to test a cell for the text "w1" and
return value 10 if true, value 0 if false. This works as I want it to. Now I want to test the same cell for text "w2" and return 10 if true. As a stand-alone operation this would be =IF(L9="w2",10,0). How can I combine these two functions in a single statement to test the cell for either "w1" or "w2" returning either 5 or 10, and 0 if false? Brian |

Try one of these:

Another alternative that arguably extends to more cases more easily than the other responses others have given. =SUMPRODUCT((L9={"w1";"w2"})*{5;10}) |
