Hi,
I am working on an Office 2003 worksheet which determines a grade for users.
Grades are based
on scores and are graded as shown below.

GD1 GD2 GD3 GD4
GD5
96.2 and above 89.3 and above 84.2 to 89.2 78.1 to 84.1 78.0 and
below

I have a total score for each person i.e. 86.8 which would put this person
into GD3. How do I automatically populate a grade cell for each person
based on there scores?


Is an IIF function the best method here? if so how would I code this?

Please help if possible.

Kind Regards

John

Hi John

I'd be tempted to write a function for this that you can call from
your code utilizing a Select Case structure, maybe something like:

Function Grade(d As Double) As String
Select Case d
Case Is = 96.2
Grade = "GD1"
Case Is = 89.3
Grade = "GD2"
Case Is = 84.2
Grade = "GD3"
Case Is = 78.1
Grade = "GD4"
Case Else
Grade = "GD5"
End Select
End Function


Then if you want to fill a particular cell with the grade, you can
call the function in code like:

Range("B1") = Grade(Range("A1").Value)

Assuming that the actual grade score was contained in A1.

Make sense?

Best regards

Richard

A worksheet formula with embedded IF's would suffice. Suppose the
lower bounds for GD1-GD4 are in cells B1:E1 and a student's numerical
score is in A2. Then
=IF(A2<$E$1,"GD5",IF(A2=$B$1,"GD1",IF(A2=$C$1,"G D2",IF(A2=$D
$1,"GD3","GD4"))))
gets what you want.

Hth,

If you don't want to use VBA:

=IF(C2<78.1,"GD5",CHOOSE(MATCH(C2,{78.1,84.2,89.3, 96.2},1),"GD4","GD3","GD2","GD1"))
