[libreoffice-users] Case function equivalent in Calc

Anyone know if there is an equivalent to the Filemaker Pro Case function? It's kinda like the IF function but is simpler to concatenate multiple conditions. It basically says If something is true then do what is specified, if the next thing is, then do that, if the next thing is true, do

So in the absence of a Case function, here's what I've done so far as a calculated solution. Note that the data I want to concatenate is in cells U3, V3, W3, and X3. In Y3, I put the following: =U3 IF(NOT(isempty(U3)),;,) V3 IF(NOT(isempty(V3)),;,) W3 IF(NOT(isempty(W3)),;,) X3 The
