Lost and Completely frustrated
I am working with three tables. In the third table I am attempting to create
an "if" formula that will change the equation twice. Essentially, when table one <0, then I have to stop doing part of the formula in table 3, and when table two <0, then I have to stop doing a different part of the formula. Both of these can be <0 at the same time or at different times but the formula changes depending so I wouldn't say that I need an "and" or an "or" formula in it. Any suggestions?!? |

You need to add IF formula to the section you want to perfrom or not based on
the conditon... =IF(condition, true do this, false do this) You need to take care of the value IF returns so that the formula works... "Stephanie" wrote: I am working with three tables.

My apologies, when I get frustrated, parts of my brain stop working. I have
tried the IF statment but it doesn't seem to be working because of the complexity. However, I could just be losing my mind and don't know what i'm doing. I did manage to get a simpler IF statment working before but maybe I'm just trying to work excel to hard ha-ha. I guess I am wondering if there is any way I can add two or three IF statments together in one function?? For instance, lets call table 1 bd and table 2 gd. In table three, I am using a monthly debit and a monthly credit. If bd <0, I want to drop the debit, and if gd<0, I want to drop the credit. Both bd and gd could be <0 at the same time or seperately. Wow, I think I have just confused myself... "dan dungan" wrote: Hi I don't understand how your table 0. What formula needs to stop? |

You again set a table to a value. What do you mean when you say bd<0 when
bd is a table? A cell can have a value but not the whole table. HTH Otto "Stephanie" wrote in message ... My apologies, when I get frustrated, parts of my brain stop working.
