Adding further criteria

[Marvo]

Hi, I have this formula which works fine

=IF(Results!$O$1="MIDDLE-4-DIDDLE",'Team & Singles'!U9,'Team & Singles'!U10)

However I would like to add a further criteria to say but only if Cell AB2 has data, if it doesn't then "" to be returned.

I'm not sure if it should be an IFS or an IFS & AND or maybe another alternative.

Many thanks.

=IF(AB2="", "" , IF(Results!$O$1="MIDDLE-4-DIDDLE",'Team & Singles'!U9,'Team & Singles'!U10))

add whatever sheet AB2 is in , if required

Thank you. I can see how that works but it wont because although AB2 displays as blank, it does have formula in it. At least I think that's the reason.

if the formula is returning a "" then it should work

in B2 is a formula which returns a blank if A2 is blank
and then in D2 is a formula to Test B2, which has a formula in if its blank

Book3
	A	B	C	D
1
2				cell is Blank
Sheet1

Cell Formulas
Range	Formula
B2	B2	=IF(A2="","","fred")
D2	D2	=IF(B2="","cell is Blank",1)

I've worked out how to resolve that, however it has caused me a further problem as because the ZERO no longer shows it corrupts other formula connected to it. I'm going to have to have a rethink. I'm just trying to avoid a table displaying rows of zeros. Many thanks for taking the time.

where did the zeros come from ?

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

You can also test to see if it works ok, in the "Test Here" forum.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC

then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share

I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed

Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone

I've resolved it thanks by using the source cell for AB2. Working fine now. Cheers.
