Trying to avoid nested IFs
You've got IFERROR in there, which implies that you are using Excel 2007,
which I thought had a nesting limit of 64 - your formula does not exceed
that, does it? (I've not looked at it in detail as I only have Excel 2000)

thanks for your reply J
the answer to your question is YES
this formula works fine
the main issue to try to simplify this
it's because it has reached the nesting limit
altroght not critical, i was trying to include another IF to check another
data
right now, I can't do that
I'll try with the sumproduct
and get back with news

First question: Does it consistently provide you with valid results?
If the answer to that is YES, then leave it alone.
I see some possibilities of reducing it to some degree MAYBE by using
SUMPRODUCT() to return values out of the Catalogo!$C$2:$F$1117 table.
But
I'm not wading into this any deeper if your answer to my question was
YES.
If the answer was YES, are there other issues such as taking too much
time to
return a result?

Here is a formula I'm using
=IF(B5=B4,IFERROR(HLOOKUP(VLOOKUP(B5,Referencias!$ BG$1:$BH$19,2,FALSE),Catalogo!$K$1:$Y$7,(IF(VLOOKU P(L5,Catalogo!$C$2:$F$1117,4,FALSE)<(VLOOKUP(L4,C atalogo!$C$2:$F$1117,4,FALSE)),5,(IF(L5<L4,IF(VLO OKUP(L5,Catalogo!$C$2:$F$1117,2,FALSE)(VLOOKUP(L4 ,Catalogo!$C$2:$F$1117,2,FALSE)),6,IF(VLOOKUP(L5,C atalogo!$C$2:$F$1117,2,FALSE)<(VLOOKUP(L4,Catalogo !$C$2:$F$1117,2,FALSE)),7,2)),IF(VLOOKUP(L5,Catalo go!$C$2:$F$1117,2,FALSE)(VLOOKUP(L4,Catalogo!$C$2 :$F$1117,2,FALSE)),4,IF(VLOOKUP(L5,Catalogo!$C$2:$ F$1117,2,FALSE)<(VLOOKUP(L4,Catalogo!$C$2:$F$1117, 2,FALSE)),3,0)))))),FALSE),0),0)
I know, I know
it's toooooo long
what I'm doing is comparing a machine with the last one used, then seen
if
there is a swicth on the material that it needs. If true, this formula
will
find how long itīs going to take finding the values in a table.
seems complicated because it search trought several tables
could anyone think on an easier way??
