Nested IF function

How do you perform nested IF functions using the formula wizard? Is it always done via memorable means?

RE: Nested IF function using Formula Wizard

Hi Khalid,

"Nested IFs" is used when you need to catergorise a list of data. Let's say there are 4 categories then you will need 3 if statements.

1) Use the Formula Wizard to set up the 1st IF
2) Type in the test & true values, click on the FALSE box, then click on the "IF" button on formula bar (where name box usually sits)
3) It opens another IF dialogue box for your 2nd IF statement, repeat step 2 at the FALSE box.
4) Type in the 3rd set of test & true statements
5) At the final FALSE statement, type in the 4th category.
6) Press OK

See if this helps

Excel tip:

No Zeros

Want all the zeros in your worksheet to appear blank? Choose Tools/Options, Click on the View Tab, Deselect the Zero Values Option, Click OK.
Easy wasn't it? But be aware that these cells are not actually blank, they still contain the value zero. This is important because certain functions (ie AVERAGE) make a distinction between blank cells and those with a zero value.
