    if statement issue

    Hello

    Im have the following if statement, but not getting the correct reading or answer....

    =IF(P10>'Summary 2011'!$K$16,"Up",IF(OR(P10='Summary 2011'!$O$24,P10=0),"no change","Down"))

    range P = percentages from -80% to +1000%

    what im tryign to achieve is....

    if P10 > 10% then "Up"

    if P10 < -10% then "down"

    if P10 is in between 0 to +9.99% then "no change"

    can someone help me with placing the logic, thxs alot!

    Re: if statement issue

    Hi,

    There are some gaps in your buckets.

    What do you want to be displayed if P10 equals exactly 10%?
    What do you want to be displayed if P10 is >= -10% and < 0%?
    Hope that helps,

    Colin

    Hello Colin

    What do you want to be displayed if P10 equals exactly 10%?
    a) I would prefer if it's >= + 10%

    What do you want to be displayed if P10 is >= -10% and < 0%?
    b) if the formula can show "no change" for this critieria


    Ive been struggling to incoporate all those, so if you can pls help me, I would be grateful! thx you.

    cheers

    Hi,

    See if this works for you:

    It assumes that there can be no values less than -80%, as you outlined in your earlier post.

    Re: if statement issue

    Hello Colin,

    wow great, thank you so much.

    is it possible for the { } portion to use defined named?

    i.e. for "up" "down" "no change"

    im using symbols (windings 3 to show arrows)....so i have defined arrows but i cant seem to add the &myArrowUp...etc?

    ur thoughts and thxs again!

    Re: if statement issue

    Sure, you want the symbols returned rather than the words?

    Change the formula to:

    and format the cell containing the formula so it has the Wingdings 3 font.
