First of all 0 is returned as text in your formula if you want it as a number loose the " " You need to tell us your situations If a1<0 else if a40 or if a1<0 and a40 Explain it clearly in english and then someone will give you the right answer Regards Dav -- Dav ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dav's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=27107 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=562380 |

One way:
=IF(AND(A1<10,A40),0,A3-A4) (This assumes you want the value 0 rather than the text character "0").

Help with Formula
your right - I am not being very clear - I will try to explain If cell A1 is less than 10 then calculate the result of A3-A4 (where A4 =0) but if A1 is less than 10 but A4 is 0 then calculate A3-A4 In other words I need the result of A3-A4 where A1 is less than 10 and A4 is 0 but also when A4 is 0 (at the moment my formula is returning false when A4 is 0 and what I need it to do is return the value in both situations) Does this help? -- martins ------------------------------------------------------------------------ martins's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31616 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=562380 |

message ... your right - I am not being very clear - I will try to explain If cell A1 is less than 10 then calculate the result of A3-A4 (where A4 =0) but if A1 is less than 10 but A4 is 0 then calculate A3-A4 In other words I need the result of A3-A4 where A1 is less than 10 and A4 is 0 but also when A4 is 0 (at the moment my formula is returning false when A4 is 0 and what I need it to do is return the value in both situations) Does this help? No it doesn't help much. You've told us that if A1 < 10 you want the answer to be A3-A4 in the cases where A4 =0 or A40. You haven't told us what you want if A1=10. You also haven't told us what you want if A1<10 and A4 <0. Fill in the gaps in the formula below. =IF(A1<10,IF(A4<0,"whatever you want if A1 <10 and A4 <0",A3-A4),"whatever you want if A1 =10") -- David Biddulph |
