    Re: IF Nested Formula depending on a "Data Validation List"

    Four nested IFs:

    =IF(A3="Target",(D3/189)+I3,IF(A3="Platinum ",(D3/189)*4.2,IF(A3="Gold ",(D3/189)*4.6,IF(A3="Silver ",(D3/189)*5,0))))

    Note that the metals have trailing spaces in the validation list.

    Re: IF Nested Formula depending on a "Data Validation List"

    In the straightline fashion:

    =IF(A3=Sheet2!$A$4,(D3/189)+I3,IF(A3=Sheet2!$A$1,(D3/189)*4.2,IF(A3=Sheet2!$A$3,(D3/189)*4.6,IF(A3=Sheet2!$A$2,(D3/189)*5,0))))

    Belinda - this won't work because of the trailing spaces I mentioned.

    Right Ali,
    That's why I made a reference to the values listed in sheet2.
