    Re: lookup

    both examples work perfect. but what if i wanted column D to say "complete" or "finished" when cell b6 and c6 are not blank.

    Re: lookup

    Try..

    =IF(OR(C6="",B6=""),"","Finished")

    Or subsitute Finished for whatever word you want.

    EDIT


    The above is if either is blank.

    If you want it if both are blank

    =IF(AND(C6="",B6=""),"","Finished")
