Default Eliminating Multiple IF/THEN loops

You can calculate the Qtr value:

Qtr=INT((Month(N4)-1)/3)+1

Does this help?

You could then use Select CASE instead "If" statements to determine action
on value of Qtr

I have a table of data with dates in the top row(weekly). I need to take an
action depending on which quarter of the year the date is in. What I am
working on is assigning a number 1 thru 4 based on evaluation of the date, ie
If Month(N4)<4 Then
Qtr= 1
Else if Month (N4)3 AND Month (N4) <7 Then
Qtr = 2......

From this I would then have something like

If Qtr = 1 then
evaulate cell

I believe there is a cleaner way to do this instead of multiple if
statements, if any could provide insight it would be appreciated.
