Hi Rob,
Thanks for that - worked perfectly.
I hadn't realised about ISBLANK......
If I'd found that I could have worked it out, but thanks anyway!

Cheers
Gordon

Hi Gordon,

You didn't specify what the value of col. C shou;d be if both A and B are blank.

Using  =IF(ISBLANK(A2);"Y";IF(A2=B2;"";"X"))   will put "Y" in there for above 
case.

Success,

Rob.

Hi Gurus!
I'm getting all in a twist over nested IF statements.
Here's what I want to do.
I have three columns A, B and C.
There is a list in Columns A and B and a result in C, but with gaps in each 
list as under:


A
    B
    C
Fred
    Fred

George

    X

    James
    Y
Jones
    Jones

Smith
    Smith



What I'm looking for is a nested IF statement in Column C that says "if A=B do blank, otherwise do 
"X" OR, if A="" then do "Y"
I can do the first condition, but I'm running into trouble combining the second 
in one statement.

Hope that's clear!

Cheers
Gordon
