IIF Statement Hoopla!!

Presto731
Isn't the IIF statement a joy.

I have three IIF statements that all work fine on their own in my query field.

they are as follows.

IIf([unit_amt]=1,[split1])
IIf([unit_amt]=2,[split2])
IIf([unit_amt]=3,[split3])

independantly they populate the correct data. How do I join them all together in the same column in my query so I don't have to have 3 columns and they display the correct info. I can't seem to make it work right. Comma here, parenthese there, quote over yonder.............STUMPED!

If you're looking to imbed them in each other, it should look something like this:

IIf([unit_amt]=1,[split1],IIf([unit_amt]=2,[split2],IIf([unit_amt]=3,[split3])))

Basically the way an IIf statement works is

IIf([argument], [result if it's true], [result if it's false])

Hope that works for ya

BINGO

I was missing the last parenthese, thanks Ares!
