The following would be the formula in C2: IF(B2="M","Male","")

Hi Appleman,


It is a slippery slope.

= IF(B2="M","Male","") will only return "Male"

=IF(B2="M","Male","Female") will return "Female" if the cell is blank. This can work if you are using a popup with only two values.

=IF(B4="M","Male",IF(B4="F","Female","")) will return "Male" for "M", Female" for "F" and nothing for a blank.
