    Thumbs up Evaluate to columns; compare two columns and return result

    Hi! Good afternoon

    Thanks for all your support!

    I use MS Office 2007

    I have 2 columns : Amount and Rate

    Amount RATE DESIRED
    556583.53 NA NA
    541388.85 NA NA
    563172.72 NA NA
    470147.84 0.32 150447.3088
    557689.88 0.19 105961.0772
    368929.92 0.32 118057.5744
    669637.41 0.32 214283.9712
    316508.91 0.32 101282.8512
    318117.64 0.52 165421.1728
    424263.52 NA NA
    366445.48 NA NA
    497342 NA NA
    470445.58 0.19 89384.6602
    379561.09 NA NA

    I need column "C" to check whether B is 'NA' if true return 'NA'
    ELSE calculate: a*B

    I tried with a folmula :

    =IF(C2="NA","NA","=A2*B2")

    First part is ok : it is returning "NA"
    but it does not multiply A*B if NA not found

    Appreciate your early reply
