    Post too much nesting

    I'm getting an error that says "the specified formula cannot be entered because it uses more levels of nesting than are allowed in the current file format".

    Is there any way around this? I need the entire formula I'm entering into the cell.

    This is my formula that I need to entering into the cell.


    =IF(AF2="30 Days",(EOMONTH(AE2,1)+20),(IF(AF2="45 Days",(EOMONTH(AE2,1)+30),(IF(AF2="60 Days",(EOMONTH(AE2,2)+20),(IF(AF2="90 Days",(EOMONTH(AE2,3)+20),(IF(AF2="Advance",(AE22+0),(IF(AF2="Net 140Days",(AE2+14),(IF(AF="Net 30 Days",(AE2+30),(IF(AF2="Net 45 Days",(AE2+45),(IF(AF2="Net 60 Days",(AE2+60),(IF(AF2="Net 90 Days",(AE2+90),(IF(AF="COD",(AE2+0),(IF(AF2="COD-E",(AE2+0),0))))))))))))))))))))))

    Thanks.

    Re: too much nesting

    As your profile says, you use Excel 2003. So in this case you have a limit of 7 IF...

    There are ways to get over it. Some are described in this link. This does not mean that there are not other ways.

    Re: too much nesting

    dont know if this is causing error but
    AF="Net 30 Days"
    AF="COD"
    assume these should be AF2


    also IF(AF2="Advance",(AE22+0) should be AE2 i believe
