I have the following formula:

The syntax of an IF consists of three components:

  1.

  *The condition*
  2.

  *What to do if the condition is true*
  3.

  *What to do if the condition is false*


What is the syntax is the above formula?  Where is the *false condition*
for
the  *(**ISBLANK(A1)

IF*(A1=0*;*"no Div"*;A1-40+STYLE(IF*(A1>40*;"RedText")

Am I correct that you are saying that A1-40+STYLE(IF*(A1>40*;"RedText"))))is 
the #3 False condition for both (ISBLANK(A1) and (A1=0)

Am I correct that you are saying "RedText" is the #3 False  condition for
(A1>40 even where it seems to be the #2 True condition since there is only
one condition after the (A1>40

My apologies. I failed to notice that you left out a condition. You needto change the last if statement to add the false condition:

IF*(A1>40*;"RedText";"")

This states that if your condition is true, "RedText" if it is false, null. You could of course put any other action in for false, but you must have the else condition.
