I need to enter a text in A1 if i enter text in B1.
In other words, if I enter any text in B2 I want A1 to display "OPEN"

Thank you for your help.
 
=IF(B1="","","OPEN")

I don't know how B2 got into the picture but maybe a typo?

If you really mean text and not numbers:

in A1:

=IF(ISTEXT(B1),"OPEN","")

But if you mean anything at all instead of just text:

=IF(B1="","","OPEN")
