Multiple formulas in one cell

I am looking to be able to have one cell called "Total Lbs" be able to give the total pounds of either the # of plates or the # of bars. The plate number and bar number will never be filled in with a number at the same time so that wont be an issue. I have attached a copy of the spreadsheet I am currently working on.


Thanks!Plate Totals.docx

This is an Excel forum, so there is not much point in attaching a Word document - attach a sample Excel workbook instead. Instructions on how to do this are given in the yellow banner at the top of the screen.

Hope this helps.

sorry about that. here you go

You can put this formula in J3:

=IF(H3>0,H3*E3,IF(I3>0,I3*E3,0))

then copy it into J8.

Hope this helps.
