Hi All,

I would have thought this was an easy thing to figure out, but I am stuck getting the OR() function to work correctly in combination with the IF() function.

In this case if cell d126 is either 310 or 319 return 1 otherwise 0. When i try it individually when cell d126 meets the criteria it works and returns 1, but when I use the OR() function it returns 0?? What am i doing wrong?

=IF((D126=310) *OR(D126=319),1,0)

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
