All, I hope someone here can help me out. I am trying to make an Excel roster of membership for an organization. Each row will contain data relevant to the member, with Column A listing a status. Columns P, Q and R will contain dates. If there is a date in P with Q and R empty, I want column A to reflect "EA". If there is a date in P AND Q, Column A will show "FC". It P, Q and R all have a date, Column A should read "MM".
Here is what I have managed to make. Note that when used, only the last scenario works properly. That section I have posted in red. IE- if all three have a date, "MM" appears on the Column A.
=IF(AND(P2>0,Q2<0,R2<0),"EA",IF(AND(P2>0,Q2>0,R2<0),"FC",IF(AND(P2>0,Q2>0,R2>0),"MM")))
I am about to throw my hands up! Thanks for taking the time to read this, maybe someone can help out! Ross
Hi,
How about this:
Cheers,=IF(AND(P2>0,Q2="",R2=""),"EA",IF(AND(P2>0,Q2>0,R2=""),"FC",IF(AND(P2>0,Q2>0,R2>0),"MM")))
“To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men.” ~ Abraham Lincoln
It might be as simple as:
=CHOOSE(COUNT($P2:$R2), "EA", "FC", "MM")
...depends on how orderly those dates are entered.

A better one might be:
=LOOKUP(2, 1/($P2:$R2>0), {"EA","FC","MM"})
This one would still give you "FC" if Q had a date and P was accidentally empty.
