Hello,
This should be a layup, but I'm stuck:
I'm trying to write a simple excel line which provides a TRUE / FALSE
result, comparing one value with two other values, to ensure that the
single value lies between the other two values. A1<B1<C1.

So, if A1=3, B1=4 and C1=5, I'd like to write a line where if:
A1<B1<C1, I obtain a TRUE result. But if A1=6, B1=4 and C1=5, and I
run A1<B1<C1, I obtain a FALSE result (63, which breaks the rule).
I've been trying =IF function, but am only getting good result if I
only compare one value (ie either A1<B1, or B1<C1, but not both).

Thank you for any ideas. I'm very rudimentary in Visual Basic, so was
hoping I could keep this to just Excel lines, but could branch out if
necessary.

Possibly,

=AND(B1<C1,A1<B1)

=AND((A1<B1),(B1<C1))

Yeah, that works with simple numbers, but when B1 is a result, such as
C3+C4, I get invalid TRUE/FALSE returns.

Can you show us an example of that (showing us the values you have in each
of the cells)?

Thanks, but still getting invalid results. The B1 value is actually a
sum of links to two other data pages: =RTD("XX.RTD", "",
A9,"sell","price") + =RTD(...). Could this be the problem?

It would help a lot if you posted the problem that you are trying to solve

Sure, but it gets a bit lengthy because A1 and C1 are links to a live
feed data source (Galaxc) and B1 is the result of multiple links.

Again, I'm looking for A1<B1<C1, either TRUE or FALSE, whe

A1: =RTD("Galaxc.RTD","",A10,"buy","price")
B1: =D5+D6
C1: =RTD("Galaxc.RTD","",A10,"sell","price")

D5: =RTD("Galaxc.RTD","",A10,"settlement")
D6: =E10+E11
E11: =IF(G10=TRUE,H10,J10)
E12: =RTD("Galaxc.RTD","",A12,"sell","price")
G10: =IF(RIGHT(F10,1) = "0", TRUE, FALSE)
H10: =IF(G10=TRUE, (E10+C10)/2, "bid/ask")
J10: =IF(I10<B10, I10+2.5, I10-2.5)
