I have been reading Mouse Trax looking for a resolution to my problem; I guess I will have to ask. In my sheet, C3 contains the value 29 it obtained from a drop down list. E3 also contains the value 29 it obtained from a drop down list. G3 contains the value 0 (Zero). H3 contains the value 0 (Zero). I tried to put an =IF(AND(... statement and it is baffling me. In I3, I said: =IF((AND((C3=29,G3=0)),"LY PROBLEM","OK") Didn't work, so I tried: =IF(AND(((C3=29),(G3=0))),"LY PROBLEM","OK") I get Invalid Statement. Does anyone see my mistake? I just don't, maybe I have looked at it too long.
