Conditional cell

I have a dropdown menu in cell A1 that is either Yes or No.
I want cell C1 to display "Data Required" if A1 = Yes and is left blank if A1 = No.
How do I program cell C1??

=if(a1="yes","data required","")
or
=if(a1="yes","data required",if(a1="no","","Not Yes and Not No"))

=IF(A1="Yes","Data Required","")

This assumes that A1 will always be "Yes" , "No" or blank.

Ignore my previous comment, what I meant to say was it assumes that you want to return blank if any value other than "Yes" is in A1.

IN cell C1 put this formula............

=IF(A1="yes","Date required","")
