IF/OR formula

[hmm]

I have this formula in a cell:

=IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a")

I also want to apply this formula to the same cell:

=IF(F71="XL","--","")

Both formulas work independently, but the first one is for if NUMBERS
are entered in column F and the second formula is for if specific TEXT
is entered in column F. How could I combine these two formulas? I think
I need to have the formula first identify the type of contents in column
F in order for this to work...?

Thanks.

Would
=IF(ISNUMBER(H71),IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a"),IF(F71="XL","--"
,""))

Hi,

Try:
=IF(F71="XL","--",IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a"))
or
=IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,IF(F71="XL","--",""))
or
=IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a")&IF(F71="XL","--","")
depending on how you want the ned result to appear. Try each version to see
which one give the results you want.

Cheers

Use ISNUMBER or ISTEXT to determine the format of the cell. So, something
like:

=IF(ISTEXT(F71),IF(F71="XL","--",""),IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a
"))

Thanks everyone for taking the time to respond. Y'know, newsgroups are the best
part of the internet , the way it was meant to be used-- these groups really
balance out all the pop-up adds, viruses, porn emails and other crap the web
has brought into our lives!

Anyway, macropod's first formula was the one that worked under all conditions:
=IF(F71="XL","--",IF(H71>0.99,(K71/RIGHT(F71,3))/H71,"n/a"))

Thanks again for the help, everyone.
