    Formula to make cell conditional upon the content of another cell

    Hi,

    I would like to make a cell conditional upon the content of another cell.

    E.g.

    if A1 is >30 then A2 should be 'Must'
    if A1 is >20 but less than 30 then A2 should be 'Should'

    Thank you in advance!

    paste this into A2
    =IF(A1>30,"Must",IF(A1>20,"Should",""))

    Re: Formula to make cell conditional upon the content of another cell

    Hi I just tried to insert this:

    =IF(AC4>30,"Must",IF(AC420:29,"Should",)IF(AC410:19”Could”,)IFAC4<9, “Will not”,)IF(AC4=”Legal”, “Legal”,""))))

    As I now want to show these rules:

    30 – 45 = Must
    20 – 29 = Should
    10 – 19 = Could
    0 – 9 = Will not
    Legal = Must

    I obviously got something wrong because Excel didn't like it!

    Can anyone help and get this right for me?

    Thank you.

    Paste this into A2 and put values into A1
    =IF(A1="Legal","Must",IF(A1>45,"",IF(A1>29,"Must",IF(A1>19,"Should",IF(A1>9,"Could",IF(A1>=0,"Will Not"))))))
