Excelchat Expert 15/08/2017 - 06:37
the thing is you don't have a value in D8
Excelchat Expert 15/08/2017 - 06:38
it's a text
Excelchat Expert 15/08/2017 - 06:38
so it will return an error
User 15/08/2017 - 06:38
sorry it should be D * F
Excelchat Expert 15/08/2017 - 06:38
D is not a value

sorry C * F

Just so i understand: there are 3 scenarios and therefore 3 IFs statements with 3 formulas for each scenario?

yes
