You have to have the formula actually in B2, and it would need to look like the
following, with the 'Something Else' bit being whatever formula you currently have in there. =IF(AND(C1=C2,B1=B2),0,'Something Else') eg =IF(AND(C1=C2,B1=B2),0,D22/G66) -- Regards Ken.......................

Hi!
The functions AND and OR return TRUE or FALSE. That is the requirement of the condition argument in the IF function. So: =IF(AND(C2=C3,B2=B3),"Two Pairs","Not Two Pairs") -- Regards Norman Harker MVP (Excel) Sydney, Australia Excel and Word Function Lists (Classifications, Syntax and Arguments) available free to good homes. wrote in message ... can AND be put into an IF statment to make two arguments.

But if you put this in B2 you will get a circular reference.

Depends on what you are trying to do. You haven't told us what is in B2
currently - Is it just a value or is it a formula? You cannot use a formula in one cell to PUSH a value into another cell; you can only PULL data into a cell by actually having a formula in that cell. If you wish to automatically change a hard coded value in a cell, without having a formula in that cell, then you need to use VBA to do it. -- Regards Ken.......................
