Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:50

Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:50
what else is required?
User
12/03/2018 - 03:50
i can't get the TRUE bit to work
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:51
if formula is not correct
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:52
when it is true you get F12*G12
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:52
when false it gives I12
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:52
but then again you have used if
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:52
which is not correct
User
12/03/2018 - 03:53
no. TRUE shows the answer. FALSE hides the answer. The if function decides the answer
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:53
let me know what you require, i will build the formula
User
12/03/2018 - 03:53
my if function is correct
User
12/03/2018 - 03:54
but i want c15 to display the answer when true and hide the answer when false
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 03:54

User
12/03/2018 - 03:54

User
12/03/2018 - 03:55

Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 04:00
see D17
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 04:00
instead of TRUE and FLASE i have used yes and No
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 04:00
C17 displays values
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 04:00
nd D17 shows values only when A19 is Yes
Excelchat Expert
12/03/2018 - 04:00
