trying to use IF formula on column A1:A10 "office supplies" , "janitor
supplies" etc. On column D1:D10 needs to be corresponding codes from
A1:A10. I have tried IF(A1:A10="office supplies",D1:D10=6999) it will
work but A1:A10 are not always office supplies. How do i add more items
to correspond to their own codes? What should i type in Value_if_false?
Should I be use formula IF at all?
Here is the formula IF(A1:A10="office supplies",6999)

I think you wan to add this in D1

=IF(A1="office supplies",6999,"")

and copy down to A10

Hi

=VLOOKUP("office supplies",$A$1:$D$10,4,0)
returns the code from column D from same row where 'office supplies' is in
column A.

hi,
the if formula reads...if then else so your formula should be..
=IF(A1:A10="office supplies",6999,0) if office supplies then 6999 else 0.
you can string 7 ifs in the formula by simply placing another if in the
place of the 0.
=IF(A1:A10="office supplies",6999,if(janitoral,janitor code,if(widgets,
widget code,0))) and so on.
hope this helped.
