    Basic IF function help needed

    This should be a pretty easy fix for most of you but I guess I'm just missing something.

    I'm comparing data from two columns like this:

    FALSE
    FALSE
    FALSE TRUE
    FALSE FALSE
    FALSE
    FALSE

    and my goal is to have a TRUE or FALSE in the third column for the following criteria:

    TRUE if left column equals TRUE or if left column equals FALSE and right column equals TRUE

    False if else

    My function: =IF(OR(L3=TRUE,AND(L3=FALSE, M3=TRUE)),TRUE,FALSE)
    where L is the left column and M is the right column.

    Here is the data set with the expected results:

    FALSE FALSE
    FALSE FALSE
    FALSE TRUE TRUE
    FALSE FALSE FALSE
    FALSE FALSE
    FALSE

    Thanks.
