Problem with nested logical formula.
 

Why can't I get the formula below to work? There are 6 sheets in my
worksheet, each of which calculates a payment with different options. The
formula is located on a 7th sheet that is in the same workbook. The formula
should pull the correct payment from the correct sheet based on the options
selected by a customer who will put an "x" in one, or both of two boxes and
choosing either "single" or "joint" life Ins. I have put several hours into
this one formula; any suggestions? Please.

=IF(IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),NOT(ISBLANK(BU29)),AH!E19 ),
(IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),(BX26="Single"),ISBLANK (BU29)),SL2!E19),IF(AND((NOT(ISBLANK(BU26))),(BX26 ="Joint"),ISBLANK(BU29)),JL2!E19),IF(AND((NOT(ISBL ANK(BU26))),(BX26="Single"),NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),'S L&AH2'!E19),IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),(BX26="Joint "),NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),'JL&AH2'!E19),
(IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),ISBLANK(BU29)),NONE3!E19)))

Thanks.

Maybe like this:

=IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),AH!E19,I F(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),BX26="Single",ISBLANK(BU2 9)),SL2!E19,IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),BX26="Joint" ,ISBLANK(BU29)),JL2!E19,IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)), BX26="Single",NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),'SL&AH2'!E19,IF( AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),BX26="Joint",NOT(ISBLANK(BU 29))),'JL&AH2'!E19,IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),ISBLANK(BU 29)),NONE3!E19,""))))))

Hope this helps

I think this - but note you do not have a result for not meeting the last if
condition - maybe the last if is not needed.

=IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),AH!E19,
IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),BX26="Single",ISBLANK(BU 29)),SL2!E19,
IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26 )),BX26="Joint",ISBLANK(BU29)),JL2!E19,
IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26 )),BX26="Single",NOT(ISBLANK(BU29))),'SL&AH2'!E19,
IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(BU26)),BX26="Joint",NOT(ISBLANK (BU29))),'JL&AH2'!E19,
IF(AND(ISBLANK(BU26),ISBLANK(BU29)),NONE3!E19))))) )

Thanks Rowan, It almost works. Everything works except checking both boxes.
That gives me a #Ref error.

I made an error when copying your formula. When entered correctly it works
perfectly. Thank you very much.

Hi!

Try this:

=IF(AND(BU26="",BU29<""),AH!E19,IF(AND(BU26<"",B X26="Single",BU29=""),SL2!E19,IF(AND(BU26<"",BX26 ="Joint",BU29=""),JL2!E19,IF(AND(BU26<"",BX26="Si ngle",BU29<""),'SL&AH2'!E19,IF(AND(BU26<"",BX26= "Joint",BU29<""),'JL&AH2'!E19,IF(AND(BU26="",BU29 =""),None3!E19,""))))))
