formula for if/then
I'm looking for a formula to translate 21 different qualifiers in Column A to
one of 3 desired values in Column B. Example, Column A reads: Red, Blue, Green, White, Yellow, etc. I need a 1 entered into Column B if Column A is Red or Blue, a 2 entered into Column B if Column A is Green or White, etc. Any suggestions? Thanks! |

formula for if/then
Use a VLOOKUP() Table. In C1 thru D8:
Red 1 Blue 1 Green 2 White 2 Orange 3 Periwinkle 4 Mauve 4 Taupe 5 adjust and extend to meet your needs. Enter the colors in column A and in B1, enter: =VLOOKUP(A1,$C$1:$D$8,2,FALSE) and copy down -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200795 "Sue" wrote: I'm looking for a formula to translate 21 different qualifiers in Column A to one of 3 desired values in Column B.
