Thanks, all. My fault for not asking the question properly: what I meant to
say was: if I have a value in cell A1 that can change, how can I write a
function that will return a given value to the specified cell, e.g., if cell
A1=105, then cell G1=10; if cell A1=106, then cell G1=20, etc. Further,
values along column A can repeat, and the result must always be the same in
column G for that row. Maybe if...then isn't far off after all?

Again, thanks for any clarification you can give...

you have a couple options. One is to use the VLOOKUP function as PCLIVE
suggested. If you don't want to insert a table you can insert the table as
part of the function like this
=VLOOKUP(A1,{105,20;106,15;107,10},2)
also if the options are linear (105, 106, 107, 108, 109, etc.) you can use
the CHOOSE function like this
=CHOOSE(A1-104,20,15,10)

I am trying to write a function such that the data returned to a given cell
will vary depending upon the data entered into another cell. For example:
If A1= 105, then G1=20; if A1=106, then G1=15

I have more variables for A1 than 7, so I don't think that nested if...then
statements would work. Can I do this using VLOOKUP?

Thanks in advance.
