IF - returns name error
 

I want to use an IF statment in a spreadsheet as follows

Column I cells are Validated as Lists for input

Column K is a value that is associated with Column I

I want Column P to show me column K's value if Colmun I matches a certain
selection from the list:

When I input the statement:
=IF(I2=ABCD,K2,0) I get an error of #Name? in P2

Can anyone explian why, and help me correct this please
TIA

IF - returns name error
 

=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(I2,{"A";"B";"C";"D"},0)),K2,0)

Hi
Try this,

=IF(I2="ABCD",K2,0)

With text you have to inclose it in qutation marks otherwise Excel
thinks it is a name in the sheet and can't find it.
