If Date is blank + past formula
I can't figure out why this would return a "yes" when the date cell is blank.
=IF([Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row = " ", " ", IF(TODAY() > [Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row, "yes", " "))
Intended logic/result -
If date cell is blank, then "blank" (this worked when I tried without the 2nd argument added)
If date is in the past, the "yes" - if not "no"
Please advise...thanks!

Paul Newcome ✭✭✭✭✭✭Try this:
=IF([Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row <> "", IF(TODAY() > [Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row, "yes", "no"))

Try this:
=IF([Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row <> "", IF(TODAY() > [Date of Site Survey (Product)]@row, "yes", "no"))

dhawkins ✭Thanks Paul! Can you point out how the <> worked vs my approach? How does that "read"?

<> ""
means "is not blank". So the way my formula reads is
IF the date is not blank then evaluate for IF TODAY is greater than the date...
