    Excel Macro If with text

    I have a 100 different catagories in one collumn and I want an Excel macro to generate a abbreviation for each different catagorie in another collumn in order to have a better overview.

    I am new to the whole macro writing thing but found a way to do it using this code:

    This works, but instead of numbers I want tekst (exemple: when it's Catagory 1 the "Callcvalue should be "HS" instead of "1")

    I am probably making a very basic mistake here but I have tried everything I could think off and cannot find a way to fix it.

    Can you please help me???
