RE: =if
Hello Michael,
Looking at your formula there is nothing wrong with it, and when I copy it to my spreadsheet, it works as it should. I can only suggest that you check on your sheet you have the "quote" marks around each word otherwise it will give the NAME error.
I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.
If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?
Have a great day.
Regards,
Mark
