excel 2003 If function
IF(AC30,1,0) means you are testing if AC3 is greater than 0, if you want it to include 0, you should put IF(AC3=0,1,0) Are you testing for a 0 value? or a BLACK value? you might want to try this IF(ISBLANK(AC3),1,0) You are missing a bracelet and have an extra space, correct syntax is: =IF((C3+E3+G3+I3+K3+M3+O3+Q3+S3+U3+W3+Y3)0,(C3+E3 +G3+I3+K3+M3+O3+Q3+S3+U3+W3+Y3)/AT3,"") -- Bearacade ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bearacade's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=35016 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=552418 |

excel 2003 If function
Excel evaluates "" as greater than 0. Thus cell AC3 will always be greater
than 0 (unless AT3 is negative). Try this instead. =IF(AND(AC30,AC3<""),1,0) This tests to see if AC3 is greater than 0 AND not equal to "".
