You tested for only Y when there are several other possibilities.

 Hello together

Semicolon or comma - this is also a matter of discontinued language in the document In German, the separator always is between the blocks a ";" in the English-language versions a "," But I have another others resolution: (separator is this ";", because I installed the German version).

Instead of this
     =WENN(ODER(A1="y";A1="yellow";A1="Y";A1="Yellow");5;0)
it can also be written:
     =WENN(GROSS(TEIL(A1;1;1))="Y";5;0)

in words: if the upper first character "Y" in cell A1, then 5 else 0.

best regards
Franz

Ok. This is weird. I was playing around with this wondering what is wrong. I copied and pasted Anthony posted and it didnt work. I screwed up and and hit delete before I could make a change so I did it again. I copied and pasted his example but, I picked the wrong one.

=IF( OR(F6="yellow",F6="y",F6="Yellow",F6="Y") ,5,0)

I didnt even notice it until I hit Enter on the keyboard that 5 came up.
But if you notice, the "," are present not ";". Now, if you look at any other posts I have made its been clear that ";" is what works on my build.

No idea at all what has happened here but, it is working.

Note: I did changed from F8 to F6 to test.

I still get a 508 error using it.

Error 508 means that parentheses don't match and shouldn't have
anything to do with comparing strings. Check again that you didn't
type one parenthesis too many or if you missed one.
