    If Statement based on validation list

    I have a validation list list in column E "Check, Charge, Credit Card, Other".

    in another column i have what i thought was a straight forward IF statement: =if(E3="Check",9999,"[ ]")

    It does not recognize "Check" as the condition. Is there a tweak i can do to get it recognize the data validation.

    Thanks

    It should work... do you have spaces before/after Check in the list?

    Does =if(TRIM(E3)="Check",9999,"[ ]") work?
