    Help using IF to return different values based on dates

    Hello, First I have to admit I am not a super excel user in fact pretty much a hack trying to learn on the fly. That being said I am trying to create a formula use IF based on dates to return one of 3 results. Basically I am trying to incorporate the following:

    Projected completion date > Actual Date it would return one value, if it was < it would return a different value, and if it was >but -5 would return yet another value. The values are just text

    In this example I am returning a value of "Yes" but I am not sure how or if I can accomplish the other 2 returned values using the IF command.
    =IF(M16>L16,Data!B7)

    Sorry if this is confusing or not well explained
