Hi,
I needed some help with this range I needed to write a formula for. I saw that a formula or a vlookup range table can be set up so that these ranges can be changed without changing the formula. I'd really appreciate any help with the formula first, and the vlookup table setup would help as well.
Here are the ranges:
Aaa <0.75x
Aa ≥0.75x - 1.5x
A ≥1.5x - 2.5x
Baa ≥2.5x - 3.5x
Ba ≥3.5x - 4.5x
B ≥4.5x - 6.0x
Caa ≥6.0x - 8.0x
Ca ≥8.0x [or <0.0x]
Thanks
Hi and welcome to the forum
i would suggest you upload a sample work book, (all sensitive data removed), showing what data you are working with, a few examples of what your expected outcome is, and how you arrived at that
To attach a file to your post,
click advanced (next to quick post),
scroll down until you see "manage file",
click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

I meant to put excel version 2007 which is the one I use.
What would the nested if formula look like?
Thanks Dilip
A mess. Use the lookup now the hard work has been done for you.

The ranges look wrong Dilip, what about less than 0 and the range for B? Less than 0 should be Ca.
5.83 is returning Ba it should return B.
0-0.74 should be Aaa.

Use this corrected table:
-9000000000, Ca
0, Aaa
0.75, Aa
1.5, A
2.5, Baa
3.5, Ba
4.5, B
6, Caa
8, Ca
Thans CC.
Why is less than 0 -9000000000, Ca?
I guessed a large negative number which you would be unlikley to trip over. Strictly speaking this approach would give the wrong results for values less than -9000000000 (i.e. -9000000001 would not work). Based on your sample range being 9 orders of magnitude smaller I figured this was a safe threshold.
Thanks again CC.
Lastly, to whomever can answer.
I want to create a nested if formula for a 1 notch increase in 1 column and a 1 notch decrease in another for each grade.
For example a score is 5.86, it's currently B. I want to make a column where it would show how much of an increase would make it Caa and in another column how much of a decrease would make it Ba.
Would appreciate any help. Thanks.
For gap to next lower value:
=LOOKUP(E1,H1:H9)-E1
For gap up to next higher value:
=INDEX(H1:H9,MATCH(E1,H1:H9)+1)-E1
If you want the signs reversed, swap the calculated term with E1 around the -
Thanks CC.
