I do not know how to solve a problem with excel. I want to check the value in cell 'A2' (3010-401/15/2013). if 'A2' has 3010 then in 'B2' should be 'street', if it has 3011, should then be 'block', if the 3012, it should be a 'town'







try:



=CHOOSE(LEFT(A2,4)-3009,"Street","Block","Town")

Excel sais : ''formula error''

I tried the formula Claus offered and this one by Ben in the .Programming forum.
Both worked for me, using Excel2010.

=CHOOSE(1+MID(A2, 4, 1), "street", "block", "town")
