Hi there,
I want to check a cell. If it doesn't meet one of the patterns below, it will return error msgbox.
1. Start with "OP" and the length is 8, or
2. Start with "DF" and the length is 10
I wrote a code like this:
However, it doesn't work. Could you please point out why?

Hi ! Try this !
Obviously :
If Not ((Cell.Text Like "OP*" And Len(Cell.Text) = 8) Or (Cell.Text Like "DF*" And Len(Cell.Text) = 10)) Then …
Another way...Originally Posted by Marc L
If Not (Cell.Value Like "OP??????" Or Cell.Value Like "DF????????") Then
Thank you very much!!!
Thank you so much! I am now using it.
You are quite welcome. When I responded, I did so directly to Marc's posting and did not pay attention to that there was a message before it from an Administrator advising you that your thread title needed "repair". Theoretically, neither Marc nor I should have responded until you complied with the Administrator's request. You got away with it this time, although it would be nice if you fixed the thread title so people doing searches in the future might locate this thread easier when trying to find a solution to their own similar problems. Anyway, you should read Message #2 and comply with it... both now would be nice and in future postings for sure.
Thank you again Rick for pointing out. I have already fixed the title. Hope it meets the requirement.
qzqzjcjp Rick is correct, you need to correct your title to something that reflects your problem, not what you thing the answer should be. Honestly, "How to use And Or in If statement" is hardly more descriptive of your problem than "And Or" is.
Rick, obviously so obvious ! (I can't understand why the forum does not want I raise your reputation …)
At least the OP should know where his error was …

Really? You tried to add to my reputation and was not allowed to? Curious... I wonder why?
Message : « You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Rick Rothstein again. »
Even if it was days ago …
Sorry about it. I changed it again. Hope it can work...
Yes, it was several days ago... 13 to be exact (Aug. 21st). That does not seem like a very fair restriction to place on the Reputation Point system. Just because you did not find any postings to be worthy of giving them Reputation Points since you last gave some to me, I cannot get a boost to my reputation no matter how worthy you felt my posting was. Let's think of it in a different way. What if I were to become very active in this forum and posted two mind-blowing solutions (not that I am saying my solutions are ever mind-blowing... this is just a hypothetical after all:winkto two different questions on the same day... each of the regulars here would only be able to honor one of them with Reputation Points unless they gave someone else Reputation Points in the interim. I really do not understand that kind of restriction.
Yes I have some issues in this forum and after a workaround - one more here - I just raise your reputation !
Thank you... much appreciated.
I knew there was a restriction placed (a while back we had a pair of members repping each other, back and forth, 5 times a day, daily...to the tune of 1000's of re points).
But I did not think there was that much of a limitation. I will "TRY" to check into it with the tech team, but don't hold your breath waiting.
Thank you in advance for checking into this... appreciated.
