how to set up an "if" formula with a condition, "if a cell is a date"?

Hi there,

I am trying to set up an equation right now, with a condition, if "Received Date" is a date / if "Received Date" has a value.

Currently, I am using a checkbox as a substitute "=if(Received?x = 1, "y", "n")" ("Received?" is a name of the checkbox column), but with an exception to the equation, the column is unnecessary and I was hoping to simplify the spreadsheet that I am currently working on.

Thanks in advance

I think you are looking for something like this, Cellx would be a date cell.

=IF(IsDate(Cellx), "SUCCESS", IF(IsBlank(Cellx), "BLANK", "Not a Date") )
