I have the following formula
=IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>0)),D2, IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>"")),D2,""))
and right now
R29 is equal to 12+
D16 is empty
But on the cell that my formula is at I get the value of D2 rather than an empty cell and I'm not sure why as I told the formula to show an empty cell if there is nothing on D16 and R29 = 12+.
Can somebody help me figure out what I am doing wrong?
The excel if statement is =IF (logical_test, [value_if_true], [value_if_false])
in your code you switched the true with the false
so right now in the =IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>0)),D2,IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>"")),D2,""))
The first part returns true because (AND($R$29="12+",D16<>0) is actually true, so is does the true part of the statement witch is D2
The correct formula should be:
=IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>0)),IF((AND($R$29="12+",D16<>"")),"",D2),D2)

My formula is the same for all the cells yet some follow my IF formula while others return FALSE.
It returns the false on a few, not all, of the "Yes" responses
Formula:
=IF(ISBLANK(B9),(IF(ISBLANK(C9),(IF(ISBLANK(D9),"No","Yes")))))
I have tried both copy/paste formula and manually typing the formula in the incorrect cells. Both return "FALSE".
For the first and second IF you do not have a value if it evaluates to false. Essentially it will only say "Yes" if B9 and C9 is blank and D9 is not. Try this:
=IF(ISBLANK(B9),(IF(ISBLANK(C9),(IF(ISBLANK(D9),"No","Yes")), "Yes")), "Yes")
I need a formula that displays the below, but cannot for the life of me get it to work:
If A1 is not blank, B1 must be 'yes' (I want either a 0 or 100 to be displayed in C1 dependant on result).
Thanks,
You'll need to chain a few functions together. The first is ISBLANK() which, as it sounds, tells you if the value provided is blank. As you mentioned, you want the case when it's not blank, so you'll need to enclose this in the NOT() function, which will reverse the boolean result.
For example, when B1's formula is =ISBLANK(A1), the result is FALSE when A1 is not blank. Since you want it to be TRUE, you'll use =NOT(ISBLANK(A1)).
To get B1 to show a value besides TRUE or FALSE at this point, you can use the IF() function, which allows you to specify a value to be shown when the result is TRUE and a different value for FALSE.
In your case, =IF(NOT(ISBLANK(A1)),'yes','no') should give you yes when A1 is not blank, and no when A1 is blank.
You can also utilize the IF() function in C1 to do your additional "0 or 100" logic.
So:
A1
Project one
B1
Yes or No
C1 - if project one, is 'yes' then value to be 100, if project one is 'no' then value to be 0.
You Can Use If Condition.
Formula Is :
If(A1=B1,"Match","Not Match")
Where A1,B1 Cell Values ,
If Condition Is True Than Match Will Execute Otherwise Not Match Will Execute.
Write This Condition in C1 Cell
Excel Formula:
=IF(ISBLANK(A1), "No", "Yes")
I have a sheet where a cell D2 has a formula i.e.
=ISNUMBER(SEARCH("exception",$A2))
It returns TRUE or FALSE. Now i have another cell where it should return the heading of the column if it has TRUE in it. So I tried :
=IF(D2="TRUE","Unhandled Exception")
But as it returns FALSE whatever I do, I think its because D2 has a formula in it so it is not returning the value even if TRUE is present.
I came across the same problem yesterday.
Try changing your formula to
=IF(D2=TRUE,"Unhandled Exception")
Since the cell will have the value True, not the string "true"
Here is the formula I am trying to run:
=IF((FIND("(",A24)-1),LEFT(A24,FIND("(",A24)-1),A24)
I thought that the last A24 meant that the cell value would be copied if the IF condition is false, but it is not being copied. How would one make that happen? Thanks!
The issue you are having is if the formula FIND does not find your search term "(" it will output the error value #VALUE!. To correct this please consider the following formula:
=IF((IFERROR(FIND("(",A24)-1,FALSE)),LEFT(A24,FIND("(",A24)-1),A24)
IFERROR function makes sure if the term is not found it will output FALSE. Hope this helps. Cheers,
The syntax for an if statement is
=IF(condition, value if true, value if false)
You have omitted the optional value if false so if your condition returns false, the statement will return a blank value.
Your current statement will return the value of cell A24 when the condition is true.
Try:
=IF((FIND("(",A24)-1),LEFT(A24,FIND("(",A24)-1),value_if_true,A24)
I am trying to find a string in excel cells, and it works to some extent, but when the value returns false I simply get "FALSE" in the cell, although when it returns a true value it actually changes the cell to what I have defined in the IF statement.
Is this because I have inserted the concatenate query incorrectly in the if statement?
My formula is as follows:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(ET2:ET4,B2)),"yes",F2=CONCATENATE("NA ",B2))
The reason you get false is the bit that says
F2=CONCATENATE("NA ",B2)
I think you're trying to use this as an assignment (ie set the cell F2 to the value of the ConCat).
What it will actually do is compare the value of F2 and the value of the concat, and return TRUE if they are equal and FALSE otherwise. This TRUE or FALSE value is what you are ending up with in your cell.
So to fix it:
If the above formula is in the cell F2, then just remove the F2= from the formula and it should work.
If the above formula not in the cell F2, then you need to put either this same formula or a slightly altered one into that cell to populate F2.
