How do I use the IF formula in Excel?

IF Definition:  IF(CONDITION, action or value if CONDITION is true, action or value if CONDITION is false)  “If” Formula can work for anything that is based off of the data in another column.

=IF(E15=“ALUMINUM 2219”, “TRUE”, “FALSE”)

If the text of cell E15 is exactly “ALUMINUM 2219-T81” then the selected cell will display “TRUE”, otherwise “FALSE” will be the value.
