Nesting Formulas in Excel
Sara 

17 years ago
Hi, I work for a city and we use Office 2003.  I am trying to put together a spreadsheet to keep track of ambulance and Emergency statistics. For one of the things we want to track, I am trying to embed an AND and an OR function inside an IF function.  Is this even possible?  This is what I'm trying to do, and I get an error that it is not correct, but I can't find anywhere how to make it correct.

=IF(OR(Y3>0,AA3>0)AND(OR(U3>0,V3>0,W3>0,X3>0)),1)

It's giving me an error about the AND function.  Any help would be amazing!

Thank you.


Answer from Richard Rost:

You would need to put the AND function outside the OR functions, just like the OR functions are working…

=AND(X,Y,Z)

Now X could be:

OR(A1>1,B1>2)

But the AND function operates the same exact way. So I think what you want is:

=IF(AND(OR(Y3>0,AA3>0),OR(U3>0,V3>0,W3>0,X3>0)),1)

I haven't tested it, but it looks right to me.
