"If value in either cell I3 and J3 =0 "Pass", If If value in either cell I3

Thanks;

one way:

=IF(AND(I3=0,J3=0),"Pass","Fail")

I cant tell from what you say whether both have to equal 0 for for there to
be pass or if both have to not equal zero for the result to be "fail"
I would use
<both equal zero to pass
=if(and(I3=0,J3=0),"pass","fail")
or
<at least one equal zero to pass
=if(or((I3=0,J3=0),"pass","fail")
depending one whether one or both have to equal zero to pass

=IF(AND(I3=0,J3=0),"pass","fail")

If both I3 and J3 are empty, the formula will still return "Pass".

If either I3 or J3 hold the numeric entry of 0 and the other cell is empty,
the formula will still return "Pass".
