@Glenn
I agree that the posted question has been answered. However, I'm taking whatever brief contact time I have with brothertruffle880 to suggest that many nested IF statements might be a bad idea and worth further consideration.

The question wasn't how to create nested IF statements, or whether it is good practice to use them, or how is performance affected by nested statements. Just how many can one use.
Simple as it may be, Rgonzo1971 answered the question exactly.
But if the questioner wants to open a new question regarding any of the above, I'm willing to jump in. :-)

Just because you can do something does not mean that you should do that thing. I think you should describe the problem you are trying to solve and ask us for the simplest solution -- one that does not involve severely nested IF statements.

Rgonzo1971 is totally right.
I missed this question is related to Excel 2010 (I thought it is 2003)
From the following link, it also mention
Version in 2003 or earlier , it is 7
Version in 2007 or later, it is 64
