IF Statement
 

Someone gave me some great ideas but I can't seem to make them work
=IF(COUNT(B1:C1)=2,"N","Y")
OR
=IF(AND(B10,C10),"N","Y")
If two blanks to be ignored
=IF(AND(ISBLANK(B1),ISBLANK(C1),"",IF(COUNT(B1:C1) =2,"N","Y"))

what I have are three columns with $$$ in them and I need to tag them when
there is a value in only one of them with a Y

for example I need to populate Column D with a Y when Column B is the only
one populated


Column A Column B Column C Column D
190 150 90 N
100 Y

IF Statement
 

Something like this should work:

=IF(AND(ISBLANK(A2),ISBLANK(C2),NOT(ISBLANK(B2))), "Y","N")
if you're checking for blanks. If A & C are populated by formulas, maybe the
variation will work:

=IF(AND(A2=0,C2=0,B20),"Y","N")

IF Statement
 

=IF(COUNT(A1:C1)=1,"Y","N") entered in D1 and copied down.

Will return a "Y" if only one of the cells in A1:C1 is populated.
