I am trying to use the IF function but it keeps saying my logical test is invalid. What I am trying to do is to say if a letter is in one cell then this cell should show a particular number, if the other cell shows another letter, it should show a different number etc.

What is wrong with the following...
=IF(G7='GE', 1500,IF(G7='Enercon',800, IF(G7='Gamesa',850)))

Hi Tim,

All text should be double quote not single quote

=IF(G7="GE", 1500,IF(G7="Enercon",800, IF(G7="Gamesa",850)))

Hope this helps.

Katie
