to AND or OR remote reference?
 
Hi, is it possible to choose whether to AND / OR from a single cell, to
affect the whole column? such as:

=$N$2(x100,y100)

where n2 says either "and" or "or"; thanks

No.
You can't do it this way, you must use either IF or use VBA to put a formula
in your cell according to the value in N2.

IF($N$2="AND", AND(x100,y100),OR(x100,y100))

Just an idea for a workaround. If x & y are together (as in A1,B1) then
maybe...

=COUNTIF(A1:B1,"100")=n

Where n represents how many you want above 100. Example, instead of Or, you
can use n=1 (at least one of them needs to be above 100), or n=2 (both need
to be above 100)
Again, just an idea.

Hi, thanks for the response, was trying to make that work with my inputs, can
you check my version: am trying to have a variable input, but does not come
up with a true for 1 true, 1 false, where an7 is variable, an3 is 1 or 2..

(double and) works, but is long:

=IF(T9="","",IF($AN$2="and",IF(AND(AM9/1000000=$AN$7,AN9/1000000=$AN$7),"T",""),IF(OR(AM9/1000000=$AN$7,AN9/1000000=$AN$7),"T","")))

attempt where an7 is supposed to be variable "in", not working:
is this correctable? thanks

=IF(T9="","",IF(COUNTIF(AM9:AN9,"=$AN$7")=$AN$3, "T",""))
=COUNTIF(A1:B1,"100")=N

Hi. Not sure, but see if this general idea will work for you.

=IF(COUNTIF(AM9:AN9,"=" & $AN$7)=$AN$3,TRUE,FALSE)

Here's another technique. I'm guessing that it may be easier to read with
range names.

=((AM9=Ref)+(AN9=Ref))=n

(Will return True/False to the cell)

Where "Ref" (reference to $AN$7) and "n" (An3), refer to your two cells.

Hi, like your equation, will keep trying, up all night, crashing now, but you
can reply if you think know about this:
- your example below with my cells is exact same as what trying to use, but
still get true for either 1 or 2 for N, where am9:an9 am using a false and a
neg.. (repeat: getting a positive when anding them together with this: using
a 2 for N or an3, should get a false, right?
-anyways, when as follows, I get my forward response for a true or not true
with <an3. don't know why that appears to work, but will figure out later,
unless you see the error of my way... thanks much. night

thanks, looks like that is it. was just worried about my output (using
different formatting for number: 1.0 = 1M (to reduce size of cell), so:
=IF(T9="","",IF(COUNTIF(AM9:AN9,"="&($AN$7*100000 0))=$AN$3,"T",""))

sorry for all the replies, in case anyone wanted the correct answer for what
I was doing: missed a character (=) in the equation to make it work,
correct is:

=IF(T237="","",IF(COUNTIF(AM237:AN237,"="&($AN$7* 1000000))=$AN$3,"T",""))
