Combine 2 formulas
I have 2 files with similar formulas. Now i need both those formulas to be
in one cell. I am getting and error for the +IF(RIGHT((ROUNDUP($J6,2))*100,1)="0" part of the formula. Below are the 2 folrmulas.

Combine 2 formulas
H6 is written as text and the second formula didn't reflect that, but in the
second formula i have tested all possible results and my answers are all correct. For my new formula i need the following: If the contents of cell f6 = 1, 4 or 5 I need a specfic percentage added to that cell and a specific rounding rule applied. I have one excel file for rules 4 and 5 and a second file for rule 1 now i need one file for all 3 rules; if none of those rules exist cell f6 stays the same. -- lmo "JoeU2004" wrote: "Lisa" wrote: I have 2 files with similar formulas.

I have one excel file for rules 4 and 5 and a second file for rule 1 now i need one file for all 3 rules; if none of those rules exist cell f6 stays the same. A quick-and-dirty solution might lie in finding ways to reduce the nesting level. (A better solution might lie in understanding your rounding rules and finding some simplfication in the overall algorithm, if any. But that would require in-depth knowledge of what you must do. I'm not going there.) Caveat: I have not actually tried the following myself. It will reduce the nesting level. According to my prototype, it should be enough; but I do not know for sure. Nonetheless, it might be worth a try. The overall structure of the combined formula is ostensibly: =if(H6="4", ..., if(H6="3", ..., if(H6="1", ..., $J6))) That could be written: =if(and(H6<{"1","3","4"}), $J6, choose(H6, ..., 0, ..., ...)) Note that the nesting level is reduced by one. FYI, because of the AND() pre-condition, CHOOSE will never see H6=2. The zero is just a place holder. Another simpflication lies in avoiding over-specification in your subordinate conditional expressions. Not only will this reduce the nesting level by one again, but also it will avoid discontinuities: holes in the logic that might exist due to rounding or numerical anomalies associated with numbers with decimal fractions. Specifically: 1. Change: IF($J6<=50, ..., IF(AND($J6=50.01,$J6<=100), ..., IF(AND($J6100.01,$J6<=500), ..., IF($J6=500.01, CHOOSE(...), "")))) to: IF($J6<=50, ..., IF($J6<=100, ..., IF($J6<=500, ..., CHOOSE(...)))) 2. Change: IF($J6<=1, ..., IF(AND($J61,$J6<=1.05), ..., IF(AND($J6=1.06,$J6<=1.09), ..., IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99), ..., IF($J6=10, CEILING($J6+0.01,0.5)-0.01))))) to: IF($J6<=1, ..., IF($J6<1.06, ..., IF($J6<1.1, ..., IF($J6<10, ..., CEILING(...)-0.01)))) Note: I took the liberty of presuming the correction in the errata below. Caveat: The preceding assumes that J6 is explicitly rounded to 2 decimal places, not merely formatted as such. If that's not the case (explicit rounding), more tweaks to your algorithm might be desirable, depending on your tolerance. Errata .... You worte: the second formula i have tested all possible results and my answers are all correct. I believe I see your intent now. I still believe there is an error in the nesting of IF() functions; but it is not the error that I first thought. I am still puzzled by the structure of your second formula. I believe there is an error starting at: IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(RIGHT((ROUNDUP(...)) *100,1)="0", ... I could be wrong. To follow along, I suggest that you copy-and-paste the formula into Notepad, break it down so that IF(condition,truePart,falsePart) is on separate lines, and number the parentheses of nesting levels like this: IF1(...)1. The following is what I see (with apologies if things do not align as intended): =IF1($H6=1, IF2($J6<=1, $J6, IF3(AND($J61,$J6<=1.05), 0.99, IF4(AND($J6=1.06,$J6<=1.09), 1.09, IF5(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99) +IF6(RIGHT((ROUNDUP($J6,2))*100,1)="0", ROUNDUP($J6,1)+0.09, IF7(RIGHT($J6,2)*100<=9, 19, (ROUNDUP($J6*100,-1)-1)/100)7)6, IF6($J6=10,CEILING($J6+0.01,0.5)-0.01)6)5)4)3)2, $F6)1 Note that the expression IF($J6=10,...) is the true part of the expression IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(...),...). If that is your intent, then I believe "IF5" will return FALSE when $J6<=9.99, as I said before. Explanation.... The expression AND(...)+IF(...) behaves like an OR operation: it is false only when both functions return false or zero. But I believe the "+IF(...)" expression is always greater than zero. So I believe AND(...)+IF(...) is always true, even when $J6<=9.99. Thus, when $J6<=9.99, IF($J6=10,...) is false. And since there is no false part, it will return FALSE. Moreover, if my analysis is correct, then as written, I do not believe "IF5" behaves at all as you intended. I suspect it should return 19 or either of the ROUNDUP results. I believe it does not. I suspect that your original intent was for "+IF(...)" to be ",IF(...)"; that is, it is intended to be the true part when 1.1<=$J6<=9.99. I suspect the formula got mangled in an attempt to solve a problem with too many nesting levels, taking RIGHT(ROUND(...)...) into account. Forgive me if I am wrong, and this is a red herring. But if my analysis is correct, then with the simplification that I suggested above, you might be able to correct this by reverting back to ",IF(...)" instead of "+IF(...)". However, if you do, I suspect you will encounter nesting level problems in the combined IF() expression, despite my suggestions. Sigh. ----- original message ----- "Lisa" wrote in message ...

No way for me to tell if the typo is just in Lisa's posting, in which case this is truly much ado about nothing (sorry), or if it is in the actual worksheet.

Caveat: The preceding assumes that J6 is explicitly rounded to 2 decimal places, not merely formatted as such. If that's not the case (explicit rounding), more tweaks to your algorithm might be desirable, depending on your tolerance. Errata .... You worte: the second formula i have tested all possible results and my answers are all correct. I believe I see your intent now. I still believe there is an error in the nesting of IF() functions; but it is not the error that I first thought. I am still puzzled by the structure of your second formula. I believe there is an error starting at: IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(RIGHT((ROUNDUP(...)) *100,1)="0", ... I could be wrong. To follow along, I suggest that you copy-and-paste the formula into Notepad, break it down so that IF(condition,truePart,falsePart) is on separate lines, and number the parentheses of nesting levels like this: IF1(...)1. The following is what I see (with apologies if things do not align as intended): =IF1($H6=1, IF2($J6<=1, $J6, IF3(AND($J61,$J6<=1.05), 0.99, IF4(AND($J6=1.06,$J6<=1.09), 1.09, IF5(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99) +IF6(RIGHT((ROUNDUP($J6,2))*100,1)="0", ROUNDUP($J6,1)+0.09, IF7(RIGHT($J6,2)*100<=9, 19, (ROUNDUP($J6*100,-1)-1)/100)7)6, IF6($J6=10,CEILING($J6+0.01,0.5)-0.01)6)5)4)3)2, $F6)1 Note that the expression IF($J6=10,...) is the true part of the expression IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(...),...). If that is your intent, then I believe "IF5" will return FALSE when $J6<=9.99, as I said before. Explanation.... The expression AND(...)+IF(...) behaves like an OR operation: it is false only when both functions return false or zero. But I believe the "+IF(...)" expression is always greater than zero. So I believe AND(...)+IF(...) is always true, even when $J6<=9.99. Thus, when $J6<=9.99, IF($J6=10,...) is false. And since there is no false part, it will return FALSE. Moreover, if my analysis is correct, then as written, I do not believe "IF5" behaves at all as you intended. I suspect it should return 19 or either of the ROUNDUP results. I believe it does not. I suspect that your original intent was for "+IF(...)" to be ",IF(...)"; that is, it is intended to be the true part when 1.1<=$J6<=9.99. I suspect the formula got mangled in an attempt to solve a problem with too many nesting levels, taking RIGHT(ROUND(...)...) into account. Forgive me if I am wrong, and this is a red herring. But if my analysis is correct, then with the simplification that I suggested above, you might be able to correct this by reverting back to ",IF(...)" instead of "+IF(...)". However, if you do, I suspect you will encounter nesting level problems in the combined IF() expression, despite my suggestions. Sigh. ----- original message ----- "Lisa" wrote in message ...

Change: IF($J6<=1, ..., IF(AND($J61,$J6<=1.05), ..., IF(AND($J6=1.06,$J6<=1.09), ..., IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99), ..., IF($J6=10, CEILING($J6+0.01,0.5)-0.01))))) to: IF($J6<=1, ..., IF($J6<1.06, ..., IF($J6<1.1, ..., IF($J6<10, ..., CEILING(...)-0.01)))) Note: I took the liberty of presuming the correction in the errata below. Caveat: The preceding assumes that J6 is explicitly rounded to 2 decimal places, not merely formatted as such. If that's not the case (explicit rounding), more tweaks to your algorithm might be desirable, depending on your tolerance. Errata .... You worte: the second formula i have tested all possible results and my answers are all correct. I believe I see your intent now. I still believe there is an error in the nesting of IF() functions; but it is not the error that I first thought. I am still puzzled by the structure of your second formula. I believe there is an error starting at: IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(RIGHT((ROUNDUP(...)) *100,1)="0", ... I could be wrong. To follow along, I suggest that you copy-and-paste the formula into Notepad, break it down so that IF(condition,truePart,falsePart) is on separate lines, and number the parentheses of nesting levels like this: IF1(...)1. The following is what I see (with apologies if things do not align as intended): =IF1($H6=1, IF2($J6<=1, $J6, IF3(AND($J61,$J6<=1.05), 0.99, IF4(AND($J6=1.06,$J6<=1.09), 1.09, IF5(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99) +IF6(RIGHT((ROUNDUP($J6,2))*100,1)="0", ROUNDUP($J6,1)+0.09, IF7(RIGHT($J6,2)*100<=9, 19, (ROUNDUP($J6*100,-1)-1)/100)7)6, IF6($J6=10,CEILING($J6+0.01,0.5)-0.01)6)5)4)3)2, $F6)1 Note that the expression IF($J6=10,...) is the true part of the expression IF(AND($J6=1.1,$J6<=9.99)+IF(...),...). If that is your intent, then I believe "IF5" will return FALSE when $J6<=9.99, as I said before. Explanation.... The expression AND(...)+IF(...) behaves like an OR operation: it is false only when both functions return false or zero. But I believe the "+IF(...)" expression is always greater than zero. So I believe AND(...)+IF(...) is always true, even when $J6<=9.99. Thus, when $J6<=9.99, IF($J6=10,...) is false. And since there is no false part, it will return FALSE. Moreover, if my analysis is correct, then as written, I do not believe "IF5" behaves at all as you intended. I suspect it should return 19 or either of the ROUNDUP results. I believe it does not. I suspect that your original intent was for "+IF(...)" to be ",IF(...)"; that is, it is intended to be the true part when 1.1<=$J6<=9.99. I suspect the formula got mangled in an attempt to solve a problem with too many nesting levels, taking RIGHT(ROUND(...)...) into account. Forgive me if I am wrong, and this is a red herring. But if my analysis is correct, then with the simplification that I suggested above, you might be able to correct this by reverting back to ",IF(...)" instead of "+IF(...)". However, if you do, I suspect you will encounter nesting level problems in the combined IF() expression, despite my suggestions. Sigh. ----- original message ----- "Lisa" wrote in message ...

A quick-and-dirty solution might lie in finding ways to reduce the nesting level. (A better solution might lie in understanding your rounding rules and finding some simplfication in the overall algorithm, if any. But that would require in-depth knowledge of what you must do. I'm not going there.) Caveat: I have not actually tried the following myself. It will reduce the nesting level. According to my prototype, it should be enough; but I do not know for sure. Nonetheless, it might be worth a try. The overall structure of the combined formula is ostensibly: =if(H6="4", ..., if(H6="3", ..., if(H6="1", ..., $J6))) That could be written: =if(and(H6<{"1","3","4"}), $J6, choose(H6, ..., 0, ..., ...)) Note that the nesting level is reduced by one. FYI, because of the AND() pre-condition, CHOOSE will never see H6=2. The zero is just a place holder. Another simpflication lies in avoiding over-specification in your subordinate conditional expressions. Not only will this reduce the nesting level by one again, but also it will avoid discontinuities: holes in the logic that might exist due to rounding or numerical anomalies associated with numbers with decimal fractions. Specifically: 1. Change: IF($J6<=50, ..., IF(AND($J6=50.01,$J6<=100), ..., IF(AND($J6100.01,$J6<=500), ..., IF($J6=500.01, CHOOSE(...), "")))) to: IF($J6<=50, ..., IF($J6<=100, ..., IF($J6<=500, ..., CHOOSE(...)))) 2.
