"E" for even numbers. "O" for odd numbers.
hi there
I need a formula that will produce "E" or "O" for even or odd numbers in columnA. I have tried messing around with =if(A1=iseven,"E","O") but not to much success. What am i missing here? Thanks!

As I said in my earlier post, check for blanks. Use:
=IF(A1="","",IF(ISEVEN(A1),"E","O")) Mangesh "jenn" wrote in message ... hey ppl, both the =if(iseven....etc) and =if(mod...etc) worked great! thanks Mangesh Yadav has warned me about blanks...and it is a problem. Any cells left blank are considered Even. What should i do? Thanks
