    Need to Loop and return a value based upon data condition

    A1 = Parent
    B1 = Child
    C1 = Status

    Dataset:

    ITEMA ITEMB OKAY
    ITEMA ITEMC SHORT
    ITEMA ITEMD OKAY
    ITEMG ITEMF OKAY
    ITEMG ITEMA OKAY
    ITEMR ITEMP SHORT
    ITEMR ITEMQ SHORT

    I need to populate column D with the following logic - Loop Column A - find the 3 rows labeled ITEMA (they will always be grouped together) - if all column C = 'OKAY' then populate a new column with 'Good' or if any of the three rows have a 'SHORT' then return 'Not Good'.......then go to the next group and repeat, etc......

    In the following dataset the result would be:

    ITEMA ITEMB OKAY Not Good
    ITEMA ITEMC SHORT Not Good
    ITEMA ITEMD OKAY Not Good
    ITEMG ITEMF OKAY Good
    ITEMG ITEMA OKAY Good
    ITEMR ITEMP SHORT Not Good
    ITEMR ITEMQ SHORT Not Good

    Any suggestions would be appreciated...........

    Hi,
    No need of VBA.
    Try this formula in D1 and copy down. (Adapt range as required)
