This is a complicated need I have and the formula seems impossible but
if there is a wizard out there who can tackle this I would greatly
appreciate any help. Here is my quandry:
I have one of five values in cell A1; "Red", "Blue",
"Green","Yellow" or "Orange". I have one of two values in cell B1;
"Chevy" or "Ford".

If A1 contains "Red", "Blue" or "Green" and B1 contains "Chevy" I
need C1 to automatically show the value 1000.
If A1 contains "Red", "Blue" or "Green" and B1 contains "Ford" I need
C1 to automatically show the value "2000."
If A1 contains "Yellow" or "Orange" and B1 contains "Chevy" I need C1
to show the value "3000".
If A1 contains "Yellow" or "Orange" and B1 contains "Ford" I need C1 to
show the value "4000".

Again, any help is appreciated.

Hi
not tested but try one way:
=IF(OR(A1="Red",A1="Blue",A1="Green"),IF(B1="Chevy ",1000,IF(B1="Ford",2
000,"Not
defined")),IF(OR(A1="Yellow",A1="Orange"),IF(B1="C hevy",3000,IF(B1="For
d",4000,"Not defined"))))

I have a formula that will help you ... it may not be elegant but it
works (as I tested it):

IF(AND(OR(A1="Red",A1="Blue",A1="Green"),B1="Chevy "),1000,IF(AND(OR(A1="Red",A1="Blue",A1="Green"),B 1="Ford"),2000,IF(AND(OR(A1="Yellow",A1="Orange"), B1="Chevy"),3000,IF(AND(OR(A1="Yellow",A1="Orange" ),B1="Ford"),4000,""))))

Hi

Another one (I think it's easier to follow, and easier to expand when
needed)
=OR(A1="Red",A1="Blue","Green")*((B1="Chevy")*1000 +(B1="Ford")*2000)+OR(A1="
Yellow",A1="Orange")*((B1="Chevy")*3000+(B1="Ford" )*4000)

Sorry, a typo!

=OR(A1="Red",A1="Blue","A1=Green")*((B1="Chevy")*1 000+(B1="Ford")*2000)+OR(A
1="Yellow",A1="Orange")*((B1="Chevy")*3000+(B1="Fo rd")*4000)

=VLOOKUP(A1&B1,{"RedChevy",1000;"BlueChevy",1000;" GreenChevy",1000;"RedFord",2000;"BlueFord",2000;"G reenFord",2000;"YellowChevy",3000;"OrangeChevy",30 00;"YellowFord",4000;"OrangeFord",4000},2,0)
