  • Excellent video!!! Is there a way to have two IF logical functions with with two different true responses and two different false responses?

    E.g. IF(AND(A1=B1,"Ok",IF(A1<0,"-1"­,IF(B1<0,"+1,"Bad")))

  • @llnicholsii , yes, post questions to THE best Excel question site:

    mrexcel [dot] com/forum

  • How do I write a command which will say the following. If a cell is greater than zero move down one row, if not delete row.

  • You may need VBA for that. Post Q to:

    mrexcel [dot] com/forum

  • How would you incorporate %'s into these type of formulas? For example, my professor threw this in at the end of the assignment:

    Add a delivery charge to customer totals: 10% if over $200;otherwise 15%

    I keep wanting to put "=IF(H2>$200,10% of H2,15% of H2)"

    H2 is $81.50

    Obviously, I know I cant put the word "of" and expect it to work so I'm confused about the the correct formatting.

  • Try something like:

    =IF(H2>200,1.1*H2,1.15*H2)

    please give formula for this condition

  • I am still confused trying to calculate IF function.Any student worker who works 18 hours or less will have the pay applied to his or her tuition. If a student works more than 18 hrs (referenced in F7), then student will receive a paycheck for hours over 18. In cell D11, construct an IF function to determine the number of hours worked that will be applied to the student’s tuition using cell F7 as an absolute reference. Cell F6 Hourly Rate=$9.75,F7=18. Cell C11: 18,39,22,16,27,20,32,16,11,47,­54
