Default NEWB Question.. maybe not?

In MS Excel (already sound like a newb, huh? ) does anyone know how to execute a if or iif statement? I have.. say cell f2 and f3 with text in one and not in the other. If i want to do an equation with an iif... how would i do that. i want to say, if f2 is not a number then show f3 as text. something like that, so would i do in the equation textbox type in "= iif(!f2,f3) or something... it doesn't work.. can some of you professionals tell me what i'm doing wrong? thanks

oh we did those last year in IT. Put this into the equation bar and change the values:

=if(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false)

eg. =if(f2=3, true, false)

Therefore if cell F2 was equal to 3 then show True otherwise show False. Thats just a basic one but you muck around with it and make it ask more than one question and stuff.
If you need a bit more help just ask and i'll try to remember what we did in IT.
Good Luck

now worries mate, any time!
before you post that RAM thread and any others that you do try searching Tech Forums for similar threads. A quick search found this:
http://www.tech-forums.net/showthrea...ht=pc133+pc100

EDIT: To late u've already posted it but next time try and search. H4x3r posted this thread http://www.tech-forums.net/showthrea...threadid=38752 which explains why threads dont get answered, because the person hasnt searched and are posting a question that has already been answered heaps of times.
