I want to create a calculated column that evaluates the conditions of 2 other columns to decide on a response.

Column A Column B Column C

So if Column A=aaa and if Column B=bbb then Column C should display 12345. I have several combinations I'll need to nest, which I think I can do if I can figure out the initial formula. Ideas?

=IF([Column A]="aaa",(IF([Column B]="bbb","12345","It's not good!")),"It's not good!")

You can test SharePoint calculated columns in Excel by substituting the column names for cells.

I tested this on a list and had successful results. Column A & B are both Single lines of text with C being the calculated column. Are you getting an error message or incorrect results?

  • I just tried that and unfortunately it didn't work. This one is frustating. I've tried so many combos!
