If you type 06 15:00 in a cell, Excel will take this to be a text
string, but the comparison in your IF statement will be looking for
numbers. Is your input meant to represent 6 days and 15 hours?

Don, although your formula did work, and of course minimize any unnecessary
typing, my problem still exists. I believe it may be in the formatting of the
cell for some reason... When i manually type "06 15:00" the formula works.
Even though the result is the same when performed via Excel calculation the
result of the "IF formula" ALWAYS meets the true(5 day services) condition of
the formula, never the false(Delayed).

Thanks for any and all help you can provide.

I just tested your formula with the proper results. However,
=IF((R5<=$R$11),"5 days service",("delayed"))
you don't need all the ()
=IF(R5<=$R$11,"5 days service","delayed")

Formula
=IF((R5<=$R$11),"5 days service",("delayed"))

The cell R5 is the result of a simple formula.
When the 'true' condition of the formula = True then it displays
correctly.
When the 'false' condition of the formula = False then it displays ONLY
the
true result.
If the result of R5 is typed in manually, that is not obtained from a
formula it will infact display as it should.
