Of course, it is only shorter as long as the Column E address is an address
composed of 2 characters (in the range A1:Z9). If the address is 3
characters long, then the formulas are the same length; and, if the address
is 4 or more characters long, then your form of the formula will be shorter.

LOL... you are going to kick yourself for missing this! One character
shorter...

=E7*(F7=3)+E7

Hello and Good Day =)

I am in need of some help...

I would like to create a formula where
IF cell F7 =1 then E7*1, IF F7=2 then E7*1, IF F7=3, then E7*2

Any help would be appreciated, I know it can be done, but haven't a
clue
as
to how ;-)

Thanx ~ Bkg.


Just to add another formula to the collection you have already got:

=E7*(4-3*F7+F7*F7)/2

Shortest so far I guess, but also the least recommended to use
because
it is difficult to see through and hard to update when the
requirements change.

Even shorter :-)

=E7*(4-3*F7+F7^2)/2
