I am trying to write a formula that puts a number in cell (A) if a date cell and a text cell have certain info in them. However, if the correct info is NOT in the Date and Text cell, I want the number that is already in Cell (A) to remain untouched.
I am using this formula to pull the info over, but I don't know how to make the "value if false" keep the number in the cell.
=IF(AND(FORM!$B$2=DATE(2002,9,3),FORM!$B$3="HNL"),FORM!$B$6,??????)

Thank you!!!!!

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
I have some bad news for you. You can't do what you described with a formula. A cell can not have a valued and a formula. You will need to use VBA to accomplish this. Post back a little more detail and I'm sure someone can help you out.

OUCH, that is quite depressing!!
What I am trying to do is create a form that checks to see the date and location, then uses the data entered to populate tables for each date and location. Once that date has been entered though I want the info to be permanently logged in their respective tables.

I.E.
Store 1 on 9-3-02
Product # $
XYZ 3 $20
TYW 5 $35

This info is then logged to Store 1 in the 9-3-02 column

On the form I can then do:
Store 3 on 9-3-02
Product # $
XYZ 13 $520
TYW 8 $315

This will be logged for Store 3 in the 9-3-02 column.

Thanks.
