If statement for a range of cells
 

Hi, I want to know if it is possible to create an IF statement that can for example give a TRUE value if all the cells in the range A1 to C50 are greater or equal to 0 and FALSE otherwise.

I have tried IF((A1:C50)=0,TRUE,FALSE), but it does not work.

Thanks for your help,

Daniel

You might try one of the following array-entered formulas (press
ctrl+shift+Enter instead of just Enter):

=IF(AND(A1:C50=0),TRUE)
or
=AND(A1:C50=0)

Alternatively, try the following normally-entered formula (just press
Enter):

=IF(COUNTIF(A1:C50,"=0")=COUNT(A1:C50),TRUE)
or
=COUNTIF(A1:A50,"=0")=COUNT(A1:C50)

Caveat: COUNTIF treats numeric text differently from COUNT. And A1:C50=0
treats all text as TRUE.

Thank you, it worked perfectly.
