Hello all,

I am trying to change a nested if formula by adding additional information, and I seem to be doing it incorrectly. I was hoping somebody could assist me, and point out where I am going wrong.

Code:
=IF(Scheduler!F89<>"",IF(Scheduler!F89=Settings!G5,"Close",IF(RO!D4="1","OFF","Scheduler!F89")))

What I am trying to do is:
If Scheduler!F89 is blank, then the cell is blank
If Scheduler!F89 has the same value as Settings!G5 then the text "Close" appears
If RO!D4 has a value of 1, the "OFF" will appear
Otherwise the value of Scheduler!F89 will appear

Scheduler & Settings are both time value (6:00, 11:00, etc)


Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
The cell would only stay blank if none of the other conditions are met, so if F89 has no value entered into it and RO!D4 does not have a value of 1.
Also, F89 will not have a value while RO!D4 has the value of 1. It's an either or.

try this

=IF(Scheduler!F89="","",IF(Scheduler!F89=Settings!G5,"Close",IF(RO!D4="1","OFF","Scheduler!F89")))

So the "off" isn't appearing as it supposed to, If Scheduler!F89 is blank the cell should stay blank unless RO!D4 = 1.

I think I got it figured out now.

Code:
=IF(Scheduler!F89="",IF(RO!D4="1","OFF",""),IF(Scheduler!F89=Settings!G5,"CLOSE",Scheduler!F89))

I appreciate the help everybody!

I can not see anything wrong with your original formula then apart from there is no need to put "" around 1

=IF(Scheduler!F89<>"",IF(Scheduler!F89=Settings!G5,"Close",IF(RO!D4=1,"OFF","Scheduler!F89")))
