IF Statement
 

I have one row for each person for the following IF Statement to look at. Is
there a way to add a "lookup" to the IF Statement to look at a particular
person's information?

=IF('H:\Officer Automation Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet
_04_30_09.xls]officer data'!$AV$4="y",'H:\Officer Automation
Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet _04_30_09.xls]officer
data'!$AR$4,IF('H:\Officer Automation Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet
_04_30_09.xls]officer data'!$BC$4="y",'H:\Officer Automation
Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet _04_30_09.xls]officer
data'!$AY$4,IF('H:\Officer Automation Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet
_04_30_09.xls]officer data'!$BJ$4="y",'H:\Officer Automation
Project\[TEMPLATE Off Mrt Summary Sheet _04_30_09.xls]officer
data'!$BF$4,"")))

IF Statement
 

I'm not sure, but examining your posted IF expression indicates that you want
to return the contents of a cell 4 cols to the left of where the first "y"
appears in row 4

Maybe you could be better served using a simpler index/match,
something like this, indicatively (change the path/filename to suit):
=INDEX('D:\Excel\[IF statement.xls]officer data'!4:4,
MATCH("y",'D:\Excel\[IF statement.xls]officer data'!4:4,0)-4)

Above helps in some way? Wave by clicking the YES button below
