I have a formula

=IF(A4="✖",0,IF(AND(BB4>3,AQ4<$BJ$2),BL4+$BK$2,0))

that I thought that if the first criteria was met, A4="X" then a zero would be returned however it is still returning the remainder of the formula.

What have I got wrong please?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
That is not an X in the formula, it's a symbol ✖
So what is in A4?

Gotcha. Schoolboy error. In A4 is a zero which displays as an X symbol. I've changed the formula to

=IF(A4=0,0,IF(AND(BB4>3,AQ4<$BJ$2),BL4+$BK$2,0))

Works fine.

Please excuse my stupidity and thanks very much.
