Try something like this...

=IF(A1="Test","true result", "false result")

 

[Bernard Liengme]

=IF(A1="New York",25,"")
it ends with a pair of double-quotes with nothing between them
best wishes

Thank you very much that did work
how do i make it so if i have two or more to add like
Maine will equal the number 48 and
Alaska will equal the number 13

thanks so far for your help

Your best bet here is to make a 'lookup table' containing the values you want
referenced and displayed. Then use the LOOKUP function (See the 'Array form'
of the lookup function) to find the value that you want.

 

[Gord Dibben]

=LOOKUP(A1,{"Alaska","Maine","New York",""},{13,48,25,""})

If more cases, use a VLOOKUP table.

Start excel (don't open that workbook).
Tools|Macro|Security|Security level tab|

Change it to Medium and you'll be prompted to allow macros each time you open a
workbook with macros.

Change it to low (microsoft doesn't recomment this!) and you'll never be
prompted, but you may be running macros that are not nice!
