If Function

Why is this useful

RE: If Function

Hi Katy, Thank you for your post, In answer to your question, the IF function is used to determine the state of a condition, ie: if it is TRUE or FALSE, dependant on the answer then further actions can be undertaken; so if we condsider the formula =IF(A1>=100,A1*2,0) which translated would be; Is A1 greater than or equal to 100, if it is (TRUE) then multiply the value of A1 bt 2, if it is not, (FALSE) then do nothing (0).
Taking this further, you can nest up to 7 IF statements, and also use other formula in the IF statement, substituted for either of the statements (TRUE or FALSE).
I hope that has helped a bit, if so please click the resolved link, best regards Pete.

Excel tip:

3D formulas find and replace

After you know all the components of a 3D reference, you can change them to suit by using a localised Find and replace crt+f, if need be.
