    If or 3 options help

    Hey, guys. I am trying to do some formatting for a template and I need a piece of the message I generate with the formula to be conditional on another cell.

    What I have now...

    I have a dropdown menu (cell D17) that you can choose the subject line for the email & I want this formula (below) to be conditional based on the subject line. Right now, when I change the dropdown (subject line) to target change report/update, the formula will display Target Change, but if it doesn't say target change report/update then it will say Current Target: .

    =IF(OR(D17=D4,D17=D5), "Target Change: ", "Current Target: ")

    What I want to add to the former formula or make this happen somehow.

    In the dropdown menu there is an option for a target suggestion & I want the formula to have a third option that will say if target suggestion is selected as well then the formula will automatically say," Target Suggestion: ".

    I know that this is possible because I have done similar functions, but I think I may be having a brain fart. Let me know what you think & I greatly appreciate it!

    Using your posted workbook...
    Here's one approach.
    Put this list in D1:E8
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Now, this regular formula displays the appropriate text for the D17 selection.
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Is that something you can work with?
