What Formula to Use

N

NAGYO

Scenario:

C1R1 has a Yes or No Option

C2R1 has a "numerical value in it"

C3R1 needs a formula that would pick the numerical value in C2R1 if the
answer in C1R1 is "Yes" , if the answer is "No" it would put a "0" in that
column.

Thank you

Try:

=IF(R1C1="Yes",R2C1,0)

or:

=IF(A1="Yes",A2,0)

for A1 style

C1R1 I presume is A1
C2R1 I presume is A2
C3R1 I presume is A3

this being so then the formula in A3 would be something like this
=IF(A1="Yes",A2,IF(A1="No",0))

Good Luck

Thank you Baffled, that worked.


So Suppose you have "Yes", "No", and "Maybe", and you want to assign a
value of "0" to "No" and "Maybe" but if Yes you want the Value in A2 to be
shown. How would that change the formula?

Thanks

It would change like this
from =IF(A1="Yes",A2,IF(A1="No",0))
to
=IF(A1="Yes",A2,IF(A1="No",0, IF(A1="Maybe", 0)))

Thank you for all your help. I had come up with the same formula and your
post confirms it.
