hello, i am trying to do an IF OR statement for a sheet that looks like this

Column A
Other Non BAU Event-Use Comments
Other-Use Comment Box

<tbody>
</tbody>

so i want it to return a 1 if the fields say either of those items

i tried this but it didnt work:
=IF(OR($A2="Other Non BAU Event-Use Comments","Other-Use Comment Box",1""))

what am i doing wrong?
