Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Aladin is saying that it will always match A2 as you are testing the cell against itself, perhaps you made a typo in the question?

So =IF(A2=E2, D2, "something else")

You didn't specify what you want the cell to have if A2 isn't the same as E2
