Complicated formula not working in 97
Below is the formula (spaced to make the IFs easier to read).
=IF( AND(AND(ISTEXT(B4),NOT(B4="")),AND(ISTEXT($B$1),NO T($B$1=""))), ==TRUE IF($B$1="IS_weap_list", ==#NAME? IF(HasFormula(VLOOKUP(B28,IS_weap_table,MATCH("Dam ",IS_weap_head,0),0)), ==TRUE UseSameAs(VLOOKUP(B28,IS_weap_table, MATCH("Dam",IS_weap_head,0),0)), ==NAME? VLOOKUP(B28,IS_weap_table, MATCH("Dam",IS_weap_head,0),0)), ==NAME? IF(HasFormula(VLOOKUP(B28,CL_weap_table, MATCH("Dam",CL_weap_head,0),0)), ==#VALUE! UseSameAs(VLOOKUP(B28,CL_weap_table, MATCH("Dam",CL_weap_head,0),0)), ==#VALUE! VLOOKUP(B28,CL_weap_table, MATCH("Dam",CL_weap_head,0),0))), ==#N/A "") =="" The functions HasFormula, and UseAs are UDFs from http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/formula.htm They are inserted in their own module. The result of the formula is #Value The following data is in the cells referenced. B1 = IS_weap_list B28 = ER Large Laser The lookup retuns a formula under "Dam" The formula: =IF(ISTEXT(B5), IF($B$1="IS_weap_list",VLOOKUP(B5,IS_weap_table,MA TCH("Dam",IS_weap_head,0),0), IF($B$1="CL_weap_list",VLOOKUP(B5,CL_weap_table, MATCH("Dam", CL_weap_head,0),0),"")),"") Returns the proper value of 8 |
