As long as you DON'T try to do any calculations with cell B5 (for the
reason explained by Paul) you would use the following formula in cell
B5:
=IF(B1="USD K",CONCATENATE("USD ",TEXT(B11,"#,###")),CONCATENATE("INR
",TEXT(B10,"#.#")))
If you do need to do calculations with the value in cell B5 I would
suggestion using a different cell to do the calculation with. You
could e.g. use cell C5 and place your own formula in it:
=If(B1="INR Crs",B10,B11)
In case it troubles you (or the users of your workbook) to see cell C5
you could turn it invisible e.g. by choosing white as the font
color...
Hope this helped,
Rolf
