hi
could you give an example of what would be in C3?

As to number of nested ifs, in 2003, you are limited to 7. in 2007, this
has
been increased to 16(i think).

I was wondering if there is a way to re-write the formula below or nest
more
than 7 IF scenarios. I need to be able to check for several scenarios or
more
than 7. Is this possible?

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("TIER 1",$C3,1)),"TIER 1",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("TIER
2",$C3,1)),"TIER 2",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("TIER 3",$C3,1)),"TIER
3",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Chicago",$C3,1)),"Chicago", IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("St.
Louis",$C3,1)),"St. Louis","Not Valid")))))
