    Combine two separate forumulas in one cell with one result

    i have been trying to combine two formulas in one cell. separately they work properly but together they produce an error message.

    [=IF(AND(B7="Avgas",E7="yes"),VALUE(D3-0.0171),D3),OR (IF(AND(B7="Jet",E7="yes"),VALUE(D4-0.0171),D4))]

    I'm not sure what to put in between the first formula and second - maybe there's an easier way?

    Please Help

    Perhaps?

    =IF(E7="yes",IF(B7="Avgas",VALUE(D3-0.0171),D3),IF(B7="Jet",VALUE(D4-0.0171),D4))
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Re: Combine two separate forumulas in one cell with one result

    sorry that i didn't explain...i have prices of two different fuel types, jet (d4) and avgas (d3) if avgas is chosen and is imported "yes", then i want the result to subtract the .0171 from (d3), and if jet is chosen and is imported "yes", then i want the result to subract the .0171 from (d4) and the yes is not chosen, i just want d4 or d3 to appear dependent on avgas or jet?

    Try:

    =IF(B7="Avgas",D3-IF(E7="Yes",0.0171,0),IF(B7="Jet",D4-IF(E7="Yes",0.0171,0),""))

    Re: Combine two separate forumulas in one cell with one result

    I guess you were referring then to the Cascus formula having too many args?

    Yeah, my bad. I accidentally added an extra ,D4) at the end. Sorry. Here is the correct version, although NBVC formula you should use as it addresses your situation.
