nested if

I have the following if statement.
The third IF statement is not working.
Please help.
Thank you.
Arlene

=IF(D10<K10,L10,IF(D10>=K10,F10,IF(D10=0,0.00)))
the 3rd IF statement can also be interpreted as IF(B10=' ',D10)))
If cell B10 is blank, then return the value in D10

Your first 2 IF statements, D10<K10 and D10>=K10, well D10 will always meet
one of those 2 criteria, so will never worry about D10=0. You need to
evaluate that first:
=IF(D10=0,0,IF(D10<K10,L10,F10))

Hope this helps.

Maybe

=IF(D10="","",IF(D10<L10,L10,IF(D10>=K10,F10)))

or

=IF(D10="",0,IF(D10<L10,L10,IF(D10>=K10,F10)))

The first 2 IFs cover ALL possible situations. The 3rd IF is never going
to be used.

If cell B10 is blank, then return the value in D10

It should actually look like this: =IF(B10="",D10)

As for your main:
=IF(D10<K10,L10,IF(D10>=K10,F10,IF(D10=0,0.00)))

Try this revision/re-sequenced:
=IF(D10="",0,IF(D10<K10,L10,F10))
which checks for D10 being blank/containing formula blanks
ahead of its subsequent comparison with values in other cell
