Default Checking and IF ?

It's better to use this

=VLOOKUP(A1,{0,0;22,1;27,2;32,3;36,4;41,5},2)

however you can remove the quotes from your formula (A1=0,"0" instead use
A1=0,0) and it will work.
Your formula uses text representation of those numbers and a text number
will always be greater than any real number

the formula I posted will do the same with much less effort

Im having a problem trying to check the result via IF....

ok heres how it goes....

I have 2 checks that i need to do....

First is if a number is a certain Range... if it is... then it will be
given
a certain Grade 1 - 5 the command is as FOLLOWs...

This is what i have in my B1 Cell....
=IF(A1=0,"0",IF(A141,"5",IF(AND(A1<=41,A1=36),"4 ",
IF(AND(A1<=35,A1=32),"3",
IF(AND(A1<=31,A1=27),"2",IF(AND(A1<=26,A1=22),"1 ","0"))))))


Next i need to check... if the person got more than Grade 3...
so in C1 i have
=IF(B1=3,"GOLD","SILVER")

It seems that i cant do it... unless B1 is a just a number and does not
contain AN IF Formula....

Is it not possible to have an IF Function to check an IF Result?

I really hope someone is able to assist me... Im very lost... Preferably
if
i can get someone via MSN Messenger to discuss would be even greater....
