AND( condition1, [condition2], ... )

Parameters or Arguments

Example (as Worksheet Function)

Let's look at some Excel AND function examples and explore how to use the AND function as a worksheet function in Microsoft Excel:
Microsoft Excel
Based on the Excel spreadsheet above, the following AND examples would return:
=AND(A1>10, A1<40)
Result: TRUE

=AND(A1=30, A2="www.checkyourmath.com")
Result: FALSE

=AND(A1>=5, A1<=30, A2="www.techonthenet.com")
Result: TRUE

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: I need to translate some Quattro Pro functions to Excel. The #AND# function in Qpro can be placed in the middle of a nest and return a number. For example, @if(.......A1>B1#and#A1<B3,7,0)
What this says is, after some other function, if A1 is greater than B1 and A1 is less than B3, return 7 otherwise 0. How do I get Excel to do this?
Answer: This can be done in Excel by combining the AND function with the IF function like this:
=IF(AND(A1>B1,A1<B3)=TRUE,7,0)

Question: In Microsoft Excel, I'm trying to use the If function to return 25 if cell A1 > 100 and cell B1 < 200. Otherwise, it should return 0.
Answer: You can use the AND function to perform an AND condition in the If function as follows:
=IF(AND(A1>100,B1<200),25,0)
In this example, the formula will return 25 if cell A1 is greater than 100 and cell B1 is less than 200. Otherwise, it will return 0.

Question: In Microsoft Excel, I want to write a formula for the following logic:
If R1 AND R2<0.3 AND R3<0.42 THEN "OK" OTHERWISE "NOT OK"
Answer: You can write an IF statement that uses the AND function as follows:
=IF(AND(R1<0.3,R2<0.3,R3<0.42),"OK","NOT OK")

Question: I have been looking at your Excel IF, AND and OR sections and found this very helpful, however I cannot find the right way to write a formula to express if C2 is either 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and F2 is F and F3 is either D,F,B,L,R,C then give a value of 1 if not then 0. I have tried many formulas but just can't get it right, can you help please?
Answer: You can write an IF statement that uses the AND function and the OR function as follows:
=IF(AND(C2>=1,C2<=9, F2="F",OR(F3="D",F3="F",F3="B",F3="L",F3="R",F3="C")),1,0)

Question:In Excel, I am trying to create a formula that will show the following:
If column B = Ross and column C = 8 then in cell AB of that row I want it to show 2013, If column B = Block and column C = 9 then in cell AB of that row I want it to show 2012.
Answer:You can create your Excel formula using nested IF functions with the AND function.
=IF(AND(B1="Ross",C1=8),2013,IF(AND(B1="Block",C1=9),2012,""))
This formula will return 2013 as a numeric value if B1 is "Ross" and C1 is 8, or 2012 as a numeric value if B1 is "Block" and C1 is 9. Otherwise, it will return blank, as denoted by "".
