    For instance if value of column A, cell 1 <> "test" then place "flag" in column B cell 1.

    Any help appreciated.

    Re: Simple test of one column's value when fails place "Flag" in another column same row

    I realize my problem description mistake.

    I need to have the "flag" place in a column other than where the formula resides; Say column K.

    As an extension of the original issue now want it to test for two variables.

    I tried this "OR" statement and got an error:

    =if(OR(E1<>"XXX1",E1<>"XXX2"),"Flag","")

    Thanks for anything you can do.
