    IF OR Formula, Value doesn't match the data validation restriction defined for this cell

    Hello,

    I am attempting to use the following formula but I am getting the error "Value doesn't match the data validation restriction defined for this cell"
    =IF[OR[C3="",H3="Yes"],0,F3*G3]

    Does anyone know the cause?

    Thanks for any assistance.

    Nick

    What value are you trying to enter into the cell? What cell is it in? What is in C3, H3, F3, and G3?

    Hi Nick,

    It sounds as though the cell you're trying to amend contains data validation restrictions. Select the cell[s] in question and go to Data -> Data Validation and see what restrictions are in place.

    Well, I guess that would depend on what you are trying to get past the DV.

    Thank you The_Snook, a Data Validation copied over from an adjacent cell that I didn't notice.

    That fixed it.
