Microsoft Excel Formula help
I am trying to adjust a spreadsheet so that if cell F2 = the word "put" then this formula is used =IF(J2="","",(I2-J2)*H2*100) but if that same cell F2 = the word "call" then this formula is to be used =IF(J2="","",(J2-I2)*H3*100).
is there a way to set up the formula so that you can have both formulas in that column whenever the word in column F = either call or put?
As variant
=IF( F2 = "put", IF( J2="", "",(I2-J2)*H2*100), IF( F2 = "call", IF( J2="", "",(J2-I2)*H3*100), "no put no call" ) )Most probably could be simplified, depends on logic which was not articulated directly.

Most probably you are right, but to follow request literally
- we first check on put and call
if one of the above
then
if J2 is empty
then ""
else SWITCH
else
inform that logic is not defined
