Multiple "IFs" in one expression

[jpate92]

Hey All,

I am trying to figure out how/if to use multiple IFs within one IF-THEN-ELSE expression

Something along these lines:

IF(P1=A)(1.5);(P1=B)(2.5);(P1=C)(3.5)

I am not sure if this is possible and if it is I am having some trouble with the syntax(yes, i understand that the syntax above is incorrect)

I am looking to leverage this into some PTS functionality.

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

I seem to have a talent for answering my own questions ten minutes after I post them.

The syntax for a multiple IF expression is as follows:

if(P1=="A")(3.9)else if(P1=="B")(2.5)else if(P1=="C")(1.1)else(4)

I don't think you should be putting A, B, & C in quotes

Since the referenced expression (P1 in the reference) is a string input I have to enter the A,B and C entries as "A","B" or "C" or NX wants to look for an expression. It wants the same thing if I enter it as A instead of "A" in the IF-THEN-ELSE expression. If I enter just A I get an error telling me there is no expression A

The syntax I showed above works just as I wanted.
