IF and statements

Hello,

I am trying to use an if statement to filter out and get a specific set of data for a column.

Just as an example say I have a column that says NumOfProducts and it will be listed as either 'Single or 'Multiple'

And also I have a column with PRODUCTDESC which is listed with about 50 different labels, '1: Wood', '2: Toys', etc..

I am looking to get rid of any 'Single' that works only with '1: Wood'
I tried using =IF(Numofprod<>'Single' AND PRODUCTDESC<>'1: Wood', PRODUCTDESC)
So that I could just suppress the Null and get rid of the Single that works onl with 1: Wood, however, when I use this if statement it seems to just catch every PRODUCTDESC that's '1: Wood' and makes it a null value.

CONSUMERNUMOFPRODUCTSPRODUCTDESC
TomSingle1: WOOD
BobMultiple1: WOOD
BobMultiple2: TOYS
BobMultiple3: FOOD

As an example this is what my straight table looks like and when I use my If statement, it ends up putting the a null value where 1: WOOD in Bob's row when it shouldn't. I am only looking to put null values in the PRODUCTDESC column for 'Single' AND '1: Wood'

What can I do to fix this? Is there something else I should do to make it easier?

Thank you!
