    Made a new field "OND/LED" I want this field to show the following result if DATE 2 is blank show Date 1 if date 2 and date 1 are blank show date 3.

    For Example 
    Example 1:
    Date 2: 01/01/17 Date 1: 11/30/16 Date 3: 12/31/17 OND/LED = 01/01/17

    Example 2:
    Date 2:                Date 1: 11/30/16 Date 3: 12/31/17 OND/LED = 11/30/16

    Example 3:
    Date 2:                Date 1:                Date 3: 12/31/17 OND/LED = 12/31/17

    I tried this it didn't work:
    If(isnull([Date 2],[Date 2]),isnull([Date 1},[Date 1]),[Date 3])

    Think you have some broken syntax.

    If((isnull([Date 2]) && isnull([Date 1]),[Date 3],
    if(isnull([Date 2]),[Date 1], [Date 2])))

    Not tested so my syntax may be a bit off but think its close.

    Chuck this is the error I recieved:
    Expected a valid expression after the "&"


    If((isnull([OND Extension]) &  & isnull([OND]),[LED],
    if(isnull([OND Extension]),[OND], [OND Extension])))

    Try that

    If((isnull([OND Extension]) AND isnull([OND]),[LED],
    if(isnull([OND Extension]),[OND], [OND Extension])))

    A closing parenthesis is missing.


    If((isnull([OND Extension]) AND isnull([OND])  ,[LED],

    if(isnull([OND Extension]),[OND], [OND Extension])))

    I already try added just two parenthesis

    Yeah keep playing with it I think you're close. This is a handy thing to have open when constructing these.
