For what you have specified thus far, in F2, write: =if(E2="yes", A2, "") The 3rd parameter ("") leaves the cell empty if E2 is not "yes". Fill in something else appropriate, if you want. With the formula above, F2 will always equal A2 when E2 is "yes", even if A2 is not 2. Is that what you want? Or did you intend something like: =if(and(E2="yes", A2=2), 2, "") Thus, F2 is 2 only when E2 is "yes" and A2 is 2. |
