Returns Yes if any argument is TRUE; returns No if all arguments are FALSE.

Syntax

OR(logical1,logical2,...)

Logical1, logical2,...     are 1 to 30 conditions you want to test that can be either TRUE or FALSE.

Remarks

  • The arguments must evaluate to logical values such as TRUE or FALSE, or be arrays or references that contain logical values.
  • If a column reference argument contains text or is empty, those values are ignored.
  • If the specified range contains no logical values, OR returns the #VALUE! error value.

Examples

=OR(TRUE) One argument is TRUE (Yes)
=OR(1+1=1,2+2=5) All arguments evaluate to FALSE (No)
