IF OR Statement Return False Value

John Littler

Hi...I'm looking to close a simple IF OR statement and it seems I'm missing something.

2 values where if 1 or the other is less than 0 return "Red" if false "Green" and returning Green is just getting an error, here is what I have:

=IF(OR(IDEA34 < 0, IDEA58 < 0, "Red", ("Green")))

#incorrect argument😫

Hi @John Littler

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=IF(OR(Idea34 = "", Idea58 = ""), "", IF(OR(Idea34 < 0, Idea58 < 0), "Red", "Green"))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Thank you, Andree...I am well and hope you are too.

Yes, your solution worked. I was not closing the original IF OR before returning the result.
