That is probably due to regional settings. Depending on yours, change it to a ',' or to a ';'. Basically, whatever is the delimitator in your excel functions (like what separates IF parts (condition, true, false)

So if it's a delimiter, should the formula translate to this???<br />
<br />
= AND ( $L$877 &gt;&nbsp;5.99 OR $M$877 &gt;&nbsp;5.99 )<br />
<br />
or;<br />
<br />
= AND ( $L$877 &gt;&nbsp;5.99 AND $M$877 &gt;&nbsp;5.99 )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
thanks

Microsoft Excel

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.

Spreadsheets

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
