    IF Statement question...

    Hi there,

    Am designing a timseheet spreadsheet and am finding myself a bit stuck on one issue, namely:

    In cell H35 of the spreadsheet will be displayed a number. If this number if 0-6.99 it should be displayed in the cell as "!!!", if it is 7-8 as "OK", if 8.01-10 as " OK ", and then anything above 10.01 as "!!!".

    This is fine, But I have one complicating factor, namely that if in Cell H27 is displayed the number 7.5 (and only 7.5), then in H35 should automatically be displayed "!!!".

    Any suggestions much appreciated!!

    Andy

    Try:

    =LOOKUP(H35,{0,7,7.5,7.51,10.01},{"!!!","OK","!!!","OK","!!!"})
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Thanks NVBC - that lookup statement is working fine, the problem is that the 7.5 which immediately discounts the value in H35 (and will display it automatically as a "!!!") is coming from another cell (H27)...

    Re: IF Statement question...

    Is that cell H27 showing the value rounded? Is it exactly 7.5?

    Ah wait a minute, have realised an extra element...

    The lookup is fine, the 7.5 is an exact figure, BUT if there is a 7.5 in H27 and a 0 in H35, then the figure in H35 should display as "OK", if there is a 7.5 in H27 and any figure above 0 in H35 and it should be "!!!". If there is no 7.5 in H27, then the lookup is fine...

    perhaps:

    =IF(AND(H27=7.5,H35=0),"OK",LOOKUP(H35,{0,7,7.5,7.51,10.01},{"!!!","OK","!!!","OK","!!!"}))

    Still a no go - again no worries with the lookup, its the 7.5 clause that is causing the problem. No matter - appreciate the effort!!

    Another attempt:

    =IF(H27=7.5,IF(H35=0,"OK","!!!"),LOOKUP(H35,{0,7,7.5,7.51,10.01},{"!!!","OK","!!!","OK","!!!"}))
