In cell H3, I3, J3 and K3 I have either a "Yes" or "No". In Cell L3 I want it to say "Yes" if any of the 3 say "Yes". If none say "yes" I want cell L3 to say "no". Any idea?

The formula in the accepted solution will only return 'yes' if every cell in H3:J3 has 'yes' in it.

Is that what you wanted?
