Hi,

I am Using Office XP and i am writing a function in Excel that is giving me
an error "The formula you type contains an error...."

here is my function

=IF(B20="Semiprecious",VLOOKUP(ROUND(RAND()*100,0 ),semiprecious,2),IF(B20="Fancy",VLOOKUP(ROUND(RAN D()*100,0),fancy,2),IF(B20="Precious",VLOOKUP(ROUN D(RAND()*100,0),precious,2),IF(B20="Gems",VLOOKUP( ROUND(RAND()*100,0),gem,2),IF(B20="Jewels",VLOOKUP (ROUND(RAND()*100,0),jewel,2),IF(B20="Ornamental", VLOOKUP(ROUND(RAND()*100,0),ornamental,2)))))))


The problem seem to be the last round(rand... function.
If i remove the last ROUND it work fine but when i put it in i am getting
the error. Is there a limitation with the number of function you can have in
a single cell ?
