RE: Need Help On If function

["neo" <neo1@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is the wrong syntax for the If function. It should have only 2 commas.
Can one use color names in a formula? I cannot find this documented.

Thanks, neo

According to If("My formula",1,-1,0)   try   If("My formula",green,red,0)

otherwise you can also try   If("My formula" =1,green,If( If("My
formula"=-1,red,0))
