    Using IF function to show highest value achieved across a range of cells

    Hi apologies for the title, it is the best I could do to explain the problem!

    Basically, I have a worksheet that shows test results for 6 separate tests. If an objective is met in a test then it is marked with an "X". If an objective is partially met then it is marked with a "/" and if it is not met then it is marked with a "." . I have now created a combined column where I want to collate whether an objective has been met at all across the 6 tests.

    For e.g. if in the range H14:M14 there is an "X" then N14 should show "X". If there is no "X" but there is a "/" then N14 should show "/" and it there are neither values in the range then it will show "." .

    I tried

    but it just came back with a formula error.

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    Maybe something like this?

    =IF(COUNTIF(H14:M14,"X")>=1,"X",IF(COUNTIF(H14:M14,"/")>=1,"/",IF(COUNTIF(H14:M14,".")>=1,".","")))
    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
