Formula Help Please
I hope there is an easy answer to my formula problem so I will try to explain
the best that I can. I am trying to relate ranges of soil types to their corresponding dollar amounts. Here is the formula I have working so far: =IF(OR(C11=Q34,C11=Q35,C11=Q36,C11=Q37,C11=Q38,C11 =Q39,C11=Q40,C11=Q41,C11=Q42,C11=Q43,C11=Q44,C11=Q 45,C11=Q46,C11=Q47,C11=Q48,C11=Q49,C11=Q50,C11=Q51 ,C11=Q52,C11=Q53,C11=Q54,C11=Q55,C11=Q56),R5,0) Basically this formula takes into account what is entered into cell C11 (soil type) and it relates a corresponding dollar amount to it. The problem I am having is that I have 4 more ranges of cells and each range of those cells has a different corresponding dollar amount. I am on the right track because the formula above works as long as I enter a soil type from the first range of soil types. Basically I need to add on to the formula above. Also if there is a way to shorten the formula and have it recognize a range of cells...I know you can do that but I was getting an error when I tried to highlight the entire range so I had to click each cell individually to get it to work. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated. |

Try MATCH() function..You can have more criterias and change the range
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(C11,Q34:Q56,0)),0,R5) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Keith - NRCS" wrote: I hope there is an easy answer to my formula problem so I will try to explain the best that I can.

If you have soil type in Q34:Q56 and corresponding dollar in R34:R56 try the
below formula which will return the formula =IF(ISNA(MATCH(C11,Q34:Q56,0)),0,INDEX(R34:R56,MAT CH(C11,Q34:Q56,0))) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Keith - NRCS" wrote: I hope there is an easy answer to my formula problem so I will try to explain the best that I can.

This may better explain my data. The numbers on the right are the soil types.
They are mostly numbers but some are numbers and letters. I have a worksheet where you can enter the soil type (numbers and letters) and then in a column next to that it will automatically bring in the dollar amount. Does that help explain it better?

Hmmm...
You'd be better off if you could create *one* table instead of 6. Like this: Type...Price 35...119 247...119 362...119 255...129 269...129 392...129 112...141 114...141 386...141 etc etc etc Then, if C11 = user entered soil type: =SUMIF(A2:A50,C11,B2:B50) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Keith - NRCS" wrote in message ...

Maybe I am over thinking this. Will it be easier to do if I organize my data
like so: 35 119 86 154 109 168 112 141 113 168 114 141 118 181 239 181 247 119 255 129 269 129 313 154 336 168 362 119 386 141 392 129 ....etc. Soil type on the left and dollar amount on the right.

Thanks Biff!
Now one more question. When I paste the formula into the cell it works fine. But how do I drag it down or copy it to the rest of the column without the cell numbers ascending automatically? "T.

Use absolute referencing. Below are the different reference styles.
A1 Relative referencing. Both column and row will change if you copy or drag the formula. $A1 The column reference is fixed and will not change A$1 The row reference is fixed and will not change. $A$1 Column and row reference are fixed.

"Keith - NRCS" wrote: I hope there is an easy answer to my formula problem so I will try to explain the best that I can. I am trying to relate ranges of soil types to their corresponding dollar amounts. Here is the formula I have working so far: =IF(OR(C11=Q34,C11=Q35,C11=Q36,C11=Q37,C11=Q38,C11 =Q39,C11=Q40,C11=Q41,C11=Q42,C11=Q43,C11=Q44,C11=Q 45,C11=Q46,C11=Q47,C11=Q48,C11=Q49,C11=Q50,C11=Q51 ,C11=Q52,C11=Q53,C11=Q54,C11=Q55,C11=Q56),R5,0) Basically this formula takes into account what is entered into cell C11 (soil type) and it relates a corresponding dollar amount to it. The problem I am having is that I have 4 more ranges of cells and each range of those cells has a different corresponding dollar amount. I am on the right track because the formula above works as long as I enter a soil type from the first range of soil types. Basically I need to add on to the formula above. Also if there is a way to shorten the formula and have it recognize a range of cells...I know you can do that but I was getting an error when I tried to highlight the entire range so I had to click each cell individually to get it to work. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated. |

Which formula did you end up using?

This one:
=LOOKUP(C11,$A$33:$A$104,$B$33:$B$104) It worked great...and I actually stumbled onto it myself in the Help menu. Thanks for the help! "T.

Are you sure that formula works correctly? It requries the table data be
sorted in ascending order and is better suited for data that is all the same data type. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Keith - NRCS" wrote in message ...
