Nested IF? Maybe AND? Both?

Hi all,

I know this is a breeze for some of you, but I'm struggling a little.

I have values in G3 and H3. I'm trying to calculate the following

If G3 is < H3, make the cell appear blank with ""
else
If G3 / 2 is < G3 - H3
G3 / 2
else G3 - H3

i.e.
G3 H3
14 6
Result of formula would be 7 (14 / 2)

G3 H3
6 10
Result of formula would be ""

G3 H3
8 6
Result of formula would be 2 (8 - 6)


Hopefully I explained that correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
Heyyyyy...I like that. Using SUM to determine text...awesome.

Works both ways, but just by looks, I like yours better :)

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
Thanks jproffer, like you said, works either way, just thought I throw it in :)

Edit: I wonder if either one of the cells will ever have 0 and/or negative values....

That looks like a whole lot of perfect either way. Thank you both!

Sorry, I'm back with one more wrinkle to this. I needed to invert the formula for a second calculation, and that's when I realized I still wasn't explaining the text part correctly.

With that, I'm getting the same result in both column K and L for instances when there's text in one of those columns.

Besides my ISBLANK references I added at the beginning, you can see all other references are inverted.

My problem is again surrounding the text, and I should have explained it differently.

Basically, if column G includes text, the result in column K should always be "". Inversely, if column H includes text, the result in column L should always be "".

Sorry for the trouble!

Ok, so if G3 and H3 are blank, you want to return nothing (""), always no matter what....right?

THEN, if one of the 2 is text, divide the other by 2...and

then if they're both numbers, do as in your original post? Right?

What is one is blank but not the other? Or is that never going to happen?

And it's no trouble, we've all been there. Ask a question, get an answer...PERFECT!! Testing.....testing...................well what if this happens?....S#&!#^&#@.........."Ummmmmm, hey guys...it was not, in fact, perfect"

LOL



Anyhow, answer those questions and we'll see what we can do

Actually, I don't understand the problem here...
If one of the cells is TEXT, then divide the Other by 2, that was your requirement, so the 2 Columns you have the formulas in, K and L, would and should give the same result.
