Excel multiple conditions (text)
I have two sheets in one excel workbook.
Sheet 1 has overkill information on customer sales that is obtained as a report. It includes a column for the customer's county in two letter format.
Sheet 2 has an abridged set of Sheet 1's information. Information incell A1 on sheet 2 is linked to Sheet 1. Example: Sheet1!A1
So far so good. Now I want to create a condition where the contents of a cell is displayed or not based on whether it meets a condition. If contents of column C on Sheet1 is either UK or FR then display exactly that data from Sheet1 ... if not then just leave the cell blank.
In my case above I want to highlight only those sales which come from European Union countries. (so there will be 28 different conditions in total not just two as shown above).
Assuming the country code is in Column A on Sheet1 and that information would go into Column A on Sheet2 I successfully created this formula to check a single condition:
=IF(Sheet1!A1<>"UK","",She
What about if I want to say: if A1 shows either UK or FR on sheet 1 then display what is shows in that cell on Sheet 2? If not, leave the cell blank. Based on information I read I thought this would work but it doesn't:
=IF(OR(Sheet1!A1<>"UK", Sheet1!AH2<>"FR"), "", "Sheet1!A1)
Quite long-winded perhaps so please forgive.

=IF(A1="UK", Sheet1!B2, IF(A1 = "FR", Sheet1!B3, ""))
However, you will not be able to differentiate which FR city to use.
