Name: Anonymous 2012-04-16 12:19

so im trying to get this function down, but im not to good at it.

lets say im looking at cell S2 - U2. 2 of them will say "OTHER", one will not. how do i tell V2 to copy the one that does not say "OTHER" when i dont know what it will say?

Something like =IF(U2=="OTHER",S2,U2)

no no. im looking at S2, T2, and U2. there are 3 cells. thats what im tripping up on. i have it all worked out for 2. but the 3rd is what throws that entire formula off.

(when (or (str= U2 "OTHER") (str= T2 "OTHER") (str= S2 "OTHER"))
(Copy-seq "OTHER"))
