I changed the nesting of the IF's to eliminate the AND's. The 4th and 5th
rows in the formula below need to be placed on the same line and the same
with 6th and 7th lines.
Range("B5").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(LEFT(RC[4],2)= ""50"", RC[1]," & _
"IF(LEFT(RC[4],2)= ""30"",IF(MID(RC[4],7,1)= ""H"",""Harcourt
K-6"",""Houghton K-6"")," & _
"IF(LEFT(RC[4],2)= ""40"",IF(MID(RC[4],7,1)=""H"",""HRW"",
""McDougal""),"" "")))"
