How to set up a conditinal formula w/letters vs numbers?
Hi lz,
In the cell you would like your True/False answer, put: =A3="yello" This should produce the result you need. Regards - Dave.

For example: If in cell A3 it says "yello" then true If in cell A3 it says "black" then false If in cell A3 it says "white" then false However, it gives me an error message; is it because I can only use numbers? |
