Can't figure out the formula.

[canthony24]

I'm trying to figure out how to write this formula. The user can select either 'Cases' or 'Pounds' in the beginning.

B2 is a drop down list 'Cases' or 'Pounds'.
AD3 is a drop down list 'Yes' or 'No'.
AF3 is a drop down list 'Yes' or 'No'.
Pivot_CasesAV36 is the result if 'Cases' and 'Yes' 'Yes' are selected.
Pivot_CasesAO36 is the false result if AD3 and AF3 aren't both 'Yes'.
Pivot_PoundsAV36 is the result if 'Pounds' and 'Yes' 'Yes' are selected.
Pivot_PoundsAO36 is the false result if AD3 and AF3 aren't both 'Yes'.

So far I have this, but when it comes to entering the FALSE statement and the 'Pounds' results, I get tripped up. How can I add the 'Pounds' now? I can get the 'Cases' but can't figure out the next one. Maybe OR?

=IF(AND($B$2="Cases",$AD$3="yes",$AF$3="yes"),Pivot_Cases!AV36,Pivot_Cases!AO36)

does this do what you want.

=IF(AND(B2="Cases",AD3="yes",AF3="yes"),Pivot_Cases!AV36,IF(AND(B2="Cases",OR(AD3="no",AF3="no")),Pivot_Cases!AO36,IF(FALSE,'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AV36,IF(AND(B2="pounds",OR(AD3="no",AF3="no")),'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AO36,""))))

The first part it does. But when I select 'Pounds' I get a #REF . I was trying to figure out the last part of the formula. Is it supposed to be like that?

IF(FALSE,'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AV36,IF(AND(B2="pounds",OR(AD3="no",AF3="no")),'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AO36,""))))

I got it. Just had to remove the extra cells. Thanks!!

Now that I think about it more you do not need the AND and the Or statements when testing if one cell is no as if they are not both yes then at least one must be no

=IF(AND(B2="Cases",AD3="yes",AF3="yes"),Pivot_Cases!AV36,IF(B2="Cases",Pivot_Cases!AO36,IF(AND(B2="pounds",AD3="yes",AF3="yes"),'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AV36,IF(B2="pounds",'Pivot_PoundsAO36 '!AO36,""))))
