Hi there,
I am working in Excel 2003, I have 4 columns as below: Budget Actual Variance Outside Budget 10000 15000 5000 # 10000 20000 10000 ## Is there anyway I can set up a formula that will place a # in the Outside Budget column for every $5000 that is over budget? Many thanks |

The Truncation, in this case, is not needed.

Thank you all for your quick responses.
I have tried this and if I type the values, it works, but when I first tried it with my values being the results of formulas I get a #VALUE error.
