IF Statement equalling multiple words. Please Help

[Phillip Vong]

I want to say if cell A1 = "word1" or "word2" or "word3", then "".
Otherwise do this.

I know how to make check if it = 1 item, but how do you make it check 3 or
four things without using multiple IF statements?

Thanks

Phil

Use and If(or(A1="word1",A1="word2",A1="word3"),then"",else)

That should work for you,

=IF(OR(A1="word1",A1="Word2",A1="word3"), "do something","do something
else") if any one stement is true or
=IF(AND(A1="word1",A1="Word2",A1="word3"), "do something","do something
else") if all statements are true
Regards,

A little shorter:


=IF(OR(A1={"word1","word2","word3"}),"","do this")
