IF formula question

R

Rubix

My question is, I want to add "if" E2 is blank leave R2 blank in
addition to formula below.

This Formula is in R2 cell.

=IF(P2<1,"A",IF(P2>1,"B",IF(P2<2,"G")))

Thanks,
Rube

E2? Do you mean P2?

The formula above would only return "G" when P2=1. If that's what you want,
it'd be LOTS clearer to write it as

=IF(P2<1,"A",IF(P2>1,"B","G"))

Since P2<1, P2>1 and P2=1 are exhaustive, the only place you could add
another condition would be as the first test.

=IF(ISBLANK(E2),"",IF(P2<1,"A",IF(P2>1,"B","G")))

It is not clear which conditions you want to give
precedence to; that is, which conditions override
the others. The following are two possibilities:

1. "E2 is blank" overrides all other conditions

=IF(E2="","",IF(P2<1,"A",IF(P2>1,"B",IF(P2<2,"G"))))

2. All other conditions override "E2 is blank"

=IF(P2<1,"A",IF(P2>1,"B",IF(P2<2,"G",IF(E2="",""))))

Note: I have omitted the false-value part of the last IF()
function, just as you did. In some contexts in Excel,
that is the right thing to do. But normally, I think it is
best to have a false-value part
