I like Atishoo one
Now with true and false it should be like tis =IF((AND(D3=B3*90%,D3<=B3*110%)),TRUE,FALSE) "Atishoo" wrote in message ... =AND(D3B3-B3/10, D3<B3+B3/10) "Jacob Skaria" wrote: In cell E3 try the below formula =ABS(D3-B3)/B3<=0.1 If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Mark B" wrote: I have two Columns of Data, I want to know if the Data in column D is within 10% + or - of the data in column B e.g Is Cell D3 within 10% of B3 True or false?

What added value do you think you get with =IF(...TRUE,FALSE) ?
What difference do you get with =IF((AND(D3=B3*90%,D3<=B3*110%)),TRUE,FALSE) compared with =AND(D3=B3*90%,D3<=B3*110%) ?

Quicklearners formula combining if with and could have an added value of
allowing the user to adapt the output, I know he requested "true or false" but "buy or sell" or "cabbages and cauliflowers" could be more practical outputs for the user! So dont be too hasty to criticise "David Biddulph" wrote: What added value do you think you get with =IF(...TRUE,FALSE) ?

![]() oops missed that one. Real eye opener .. I just started learning excel so I really did not get that first time.. what I did was using my limited imagination only backed by IF,AND,OR,SUM,AVERAGE you get the idea :) "alexrs2k" wrote in message ...

The question does say "within 10%" not within or equal to!
