Nesting if
Hi,
I did the sample question on the grade allocation.xls file and the formula i used in column K is as follows. Just wanted to know if there is a way to convert a text answer into a numerical figure without using a further IF statement?
=B2+C2+D2+E2+F2+IF(I2=10,10,0)
Thanks,
Shane

RE: nesting if
Hi Shane,
Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.
The formula you need is:
=sum(b2:f2,I2)
As I2 could contain either text or a number, having I2 in the sum bracket only uses cells that contains numbers and ignores text without a #value message appearing.
I hope this answers your question.
Regards
Simon
