HOW MANY 'IF CONDITIONS' CAN BE USED IN ONE SUCH USAGE?

Hi

Usually if you are nearing the maximum number of nested IFs (which is 7)
there are better ways to get to what you want! Post what you have and what
you are trying to achieve in detail and I'm sure you'll get some
suggestions.

The limit is 7 nested functions (IF or otherwise), which is clearly
documented in Help for "Excel specifications and limits" subtopic
"Calculation specifications"

You can nest 7 If statements in one calculation

I have 5 by 7 matrix. If I use If statement it becomes to long. Will MS-Excel
accept any number of 'IFs'? If so, how many 'IFs' can I use?
Thanks
