Crystal report isnull formula

Hi, I'm having trouble writing an ISNULL function to perform an operation in my report.

I'll try to explain what I'm trying to achieve.

In the report I have 3 columns X, Y & Z
X & Y columns are a Sum of a group.

If X is Null then I want to show value -Y in Z
If Y Is NUll then I want to show value X in Z
If there is a value in both X & Y then Z= X-Y

I can get the 1st part working with

If ISNULL (X) then -Y ELSE X-Y

but I can't get the second isnull check to work.

Can you help?
Many Thanks in advance :-)

link your else conditions

If ISNULL (X) then -Y ELSE
If ISNULL (Y) then X ELSE
If NOT ISNULL(X and NOT ISNULL(Y) then X-Y

Although isn't this just using a 0 for null and using x-y for all 3 conditions? If you create one formula as
X-Y and set it to use default values for null it should do the same thing I think.

Worked Perfectly! :-)
I didn't realise you could link multiple Else statements.
I'm such a beginner!!

Thanks for your help.
