Syntax for 2 AND conditions within an OR function.
Greetings all,
I'm close, I think. I need to OR two AND conditions. The 60/45 and 12/40 are text formatted A1 A2 "60/45" AND "Green" OR A1 A2 "12/40" AND "Red" True = YES False = NO Thanks Folks! Mike |
=if(or(and(a1="60/45" ,a2= "Green"),and(a1="12/40",a2= "Red")),"yes","no")

Harlan,
Are you referring to numbers? Bob "Harlan Grove" wrote in message oups.com... Bob Phillips wrote... or =IF(OR(A1&A2="60/45Green",A1&A2="12/40Red"),"yes","no") ...

But the point is that using OR(x&y="foobar",x&y="doodah") when the fully qualified test is OR(AND(x="foo",y="bar"),AND(x="doo",y="dah")) can lead to error when, e.g., x = "foob" and y = "ar" or x = "do" and y = "odah". IOW, x&y=A&B doesn't necessarily give the same result as AND(x=A,y=B). |
