I have columns "A", "B", and "C". I want to place an "X" in only one of the
cells in the row below. If x is in column "A", it will =4. If x is in column
"B", it will =8. If x is in column "C", it will =15. How do I create this
formula so that whatever x equals, that number will be displayed in cell F2?

Thanks in advance,
 
Hi,

see if it helps you

on F2
=lookup("x",a2:c2,{4,8,15})

shows NA if you do not have any X in a, b or c column, you can use

=if(iserror((lookup("x",a2:c2,{4,8,15}))),"",(lookup("x",a2:c2,{4,8,15})))
