IF formula
i have columns that contain names of insurance companies followed by their
type. example aetna grp progressive pip cigna wc i would like to write a formula that would result in a 1, 2, or 3 corresponding to the type (grp, pip, wc) i'm thinking the formula would read 'if this cell contains 'grp' = 1, 'pip'=2, 'wc'=3' i cannot figure out how to write this formula thanks MS group |

See your 2nd post for a formula where name & type are in the same cell.

IF formula
To avoid an error flag when the cell is blank, use this version:
=IF(B1="GRP",1,IF(B1="PIP",2,IF(B1="WC",3,""))) "JLGWhiz" wrote in message ... =IF(B1="GRP",1,IF(B1="PIP",2,IF(B1="WC",3))) "Joe" wrote in message ... i have columns that contain names of insurance companies followed by their type. example aetna grp progressive pip cigna wc i would like to write a formula that would result in a 1, 2, or 3 corresponding to the type (grp, pip, wc) i'm thinking the formula would read 'if this cell contains 'grp' = 1, 'pip'=2, 'wc'=3' i cannot figure out how to write this formula thanks MS group |
