RE: IF statements

Hi Saira,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

An IF function has 3 arguments:

Logical Test, True, False

e.g. If cell A1 has 20000 in it.

The Logical test might be whether A1>15000. So you are testing cell A1 and seeing whether it is greater than 15000.

If that condition is met, then you have to enter a value for the TRUE argument and if it isn't met(a1 is less than 15000) then you need to enter a value for the false argument.

e.g. =if(a1>15000,"Yes","No")

If you are typing the formula directly in the cell, if you are specifying text as the True and False arguments, then you need to place the text in speech marks as shown above.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Simon

Excel tip:

Viewing Many Worksheets

If there are more worksheets in your workbook than there is room to show all their tabs at the bottom of the screen - Right click on the navigation arrows. A list of all your worksheets is shown. You just click on the one that you want to access. If you have more than 15 worksheets, select in the list and choose your worksheet from hundreds.
