Simple formula? if the time is =07:00:00<15:00:00, G$1. = 1 if time
=15:00:00 < 23:00:00 G$1 = 2 if Time =23:00:00 < 07:00:00 G$1 = 3

I have tried to do this a few different ways and have been
unsuccessful. Could someone help please?

I assume your time is in cell A1 (change to suit). Enter the following
formula in cell G1:

= IF( OR(A1 23:00:00, A1 < 07:00:00), 3 ,IF( A1 15:00:00, 2, 1 ) )

(Spaces not really necessary - just easier to read)

Sorry, the first greater than should be greater than or equal to,

i.e. change to = for the comparison with 23:00:00

Pete

If that doesn't work, try it like this:

= IF( OR(A1 = TIMEVALUE("23:00"), A1 < TIMEVALUE("07:00")), 3,IF( A1 =
TIMEVALUE("15:00"), 2, 1 ) )

The other thing that can confuse is that if the cell A1 is formatted a
TIME it will display a time even though it has a date. Therefore yo
may need to take the fractional part of cell A1 which can be done b
substituting TIMEVALUE(A1) for the A! in the previous answer.

you can see this in :
timevalue(time)=time which is true and
timevalue(now)=now which is false

hope this help
