Default Function =IF statment limits

Hi,

Excel <=2003 allows a maximum of 7 levels of nesting. Alternatives:
1. Upgrade to 2007 for 64 levels deep
2. Switch from this multiple IF to a VLOOKUP.
3. Create the deep nesting in Lotus 1-2-3 or Quattro Pro and save it as an
Excel file and open it in Excel.

Thanks,

Gives an error - only thing I can think of is it is too long?
Any suggestions? If it is too long is there another way to make this work?
You guys are great! Thanks in advance.
