You can use IF and ISBLANK. Put this formula on Sheet 1 D1:

=IF(ISBLANK(Sheet3!AM2),"x","")

You can replace "x" by any other value you need.

Need formula for Excel

Try using "count if blank"
I am assuming that you need the value to be on sheet 3
If you want the value to be on another sheet, it is more complicated, you will have to "paste special" the value to a different sheet.

Copy data that contains formula and paste it to a new sheet minus the formula: is this possible?

Sure is - depending on your version of Excel.

1) right click on the cell with the formula
2) go to where you want to paste the value - minue the formula
3) right click and select paste special
4) click values (as seen in image below)

and that's it done.

In Excel trying to compare two ranges

I imagine that the only way is with VBA coding. This is possible if you know programming in Excel (VBA - Visual Basic for Applications).

Formula not working correctly

You need to change the =IF(AND to =IF(OR
Using AND is saying both conditions must be true. Using OR is saying either condition 1 or 2 need to be true

Use the IF and Date functions together. On sheet 3, put the birthday (3/15/1954) in cell B1, put the beginning date (1/1/1946) in cell C1 and the ending date (12/31/1964) in cell D1.
Then on Sheet 1, but the following formula in the cell you want an X to be placed in.
=IF(AND(Sheet3!B1>=Sheet3!C1,(Sheet3!B1<=Sheet3!D1)),"X"," ").

How to use vlookup in openoffice using different sheets

=VLOOKUP(A2;Sheet1.$A$3:D27;2;0)

The cell I created this formula in was Sheet 3 Cell C9 - to show the different sheets
A2 is the cell I want to look up
Sheet1.A3:D27 is the range of cells that contains the data I want to return, The first column relates directly to cell C9 is Sheet 3. I locked the first cell in my range as I wanted to apply the same formula across other cells hence the $
2 is the number of the column that has the data I want to return, I had a choice in this formula of 4 columns
0 is the value to complete the formula

Excel formulas

type in "=" and then go to the cell in the 2nd sheet and click on the cell that contains the value you want carried to sheet 1. Then drag copy the forumula in sheet 1 to all the cells you want it to relate to. Now, if you place a value in e.g. A1 of sheet 2, then that same value will appear in A1 of sheet 1.
Good luck.

Copying data from one sheet to another if two fileds match

Nope, sorry, although I am truly an expert at Excel formulas, I do not understand what you are trying to end up with in the final cell. We can compare a specified field with two spreadsheets - use named ranges and index/match lookup formulas. But then where you really lose me is in reading "a generic field" to find a match, and then placing what "data from another field" into what "other sheet" - ? See the confusion?

Best way to compare 2 given parameters would be to use a nested if formula, with index/match combo. Here is a simple Excel example of how such a formula could be structured:

Sample Data (columnar arangement):
A1: Part B1: Code C1: Price D1: Find Part E1: Find Code
A2: x B2: 11 C2: 5.00 D2: y E2: 12
A3: x B3: 12 C3: 6.00 D3: y E3: 11
A4: y B4: 11 C4: 7.00 D4: x E4: 12
A5: y B5: 12 C5: 8.00 D5: x E5: 11

To retrieve the price for part y with code 12 and return the value to cell F2, type the following formula in cell F2:
=INDEX($C$2:$C$5,MATCH(D2,IF($B$2:$B$5=E2,$A$2:$A$5),0))

Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter the formula as an array formula. The formula returns the value 8.00.

To take this one step further, with range names, this example will find one value at a specified location which matches a specific row header value and column header value. Let's say the range is home values (Range=HomeVal), Column A of HomeVal contains street addresses,"row headers" (Range=StAddress), and Row 1 contains dates of the various values that are in the body of the table, "column headers" (Range=Dates). To return the specific value from the range HomeVal to another sheet, where A1=address specified and A2=date specified:
=INDEX(HomeVal,(MATCH($A$1,StAddress,0)),(MATCH($A$2,Dates,0)))

Then make sure to press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter the formula as an array formula - if you only hit enter, these types of formulas will not work properly.
