Excel and ranges
My columns look something like this:
min max value
1 500 1
501 1000 1.2
1001 2000 1.7
2001 5000 2.3
Now, based on that, I want to have cell that allows you to enter a number.
Using that number, the cell next to it needs to determine the range the
entered value is in and return the value from the list about. Therefore, if
I enter 550, the next cell over would return 1.2. If I enter 497, it would
return 1.
I have a lame method that works now using if statements within if statements
but when I have more then 9 ranges, Excel won't work because Excel has a
limit of 9 embedded if statements. I need to support up to 20 or so ranges
as opposed to the 4 ranges above.
If someone can help me out, I'd appreciate it a TON! I'm fairly well versed
in Excel so get as technical as you'd like. If VBA is the only easy answer,
then I can do that without help. I just wanted to get around using VBA if at
all possible.
Thanks in advance!
