    Question Can't figure out this simple IF statement....

    I wrote a long IF statement, and I can't figure out why it's returning FALSE.

    In the attachments, you can see that the function arguments box shows, Formula result = TRUE, but the other image shows how it looks on the worksheet (FALSE).

    Any ideas?

    dbl_dbl,

    Can you provide the worksheet(s) used in the formula (few rows of dummy data is all we need), so we can see how the formula works in full?

    Re: Can't figure out this simple IF statement....

    I don't think I can, this is a very interconnected worksheet and requires multiple references to tables and inputs. I will take a look tonight and see if I can scrub it down enough to make it shareable.

    Was hoping someone saw something obvious in the example. I've never had the function box say result = TRUE and then the cell to actually show false. It's not nested within another formula.

    there is nothing to actually see in your post - perhaps if you provided the actual formula?
    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
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
